ALright went back today..shiners still struggling so I simply dragged one in back of the boat while I worked lures...
7: 00 Missed one on a shiner ..it was a 2 pounder ..I got him to the boat and while I thought I had pressure on hi,,the hook was in the perfect position but fell out..
OK THAT'S IT!! from now on it's a hard set on the shiner..
7:30 bumping my only Green Pumpkin 3/16 ounce jig..WOW!! a hit and she's running..I set the hook and broke my 12 pound Trilene..super bummer..I had 5 rods with me so I rigged a Team Diawa Med. heavy with Power Pro..
8:00 Missed a dink on a Chrome Norman Cranbait.
8:05 Boated 1st fish..Chrome Crankbait..
8 :30 .Boated a 1 1/2 on my jig.oh..it was weird..I only had a black and blue jig and I put green trailor legs on it..I had 12 hits on this jigLOL but only 4 serious ones..
9:00 Lost a 1 pounder at the boat on the jig..
9:00 - 10;00 Boated 6 bass on shiners..setting the hook hard ..{ -:
11: 00 Boated my 9th and last fish ..a fiesty 2 pounder on the jig..
I was really happy with the jig..
The way I fish it..find structure.
Cast..and move it slow simply tickling the bottom..extremely slow..many of my bites I believe were bluegills...
