Well, all "my spots" are well documented on the net by locals, professional tournament
guys and guides. You have to move 5 miles below either the Pickwick or Wilson Dams
ro get away from community holes. It actually surprises me that I catch any big smallmouth
with all the pressure "my spots" receive.
Whether it's the right choice or the best choice, a worm is ALWAYS a viable option.
I like fishing a jig even when I know something else would be a better choice.
If I am casting into 12' or less without current, I will usually start with a weightless soft
plastic, Senko or Fat Ika. On rig #2, topwater, jerkbait, squarebill or Bandit 200.
You need to plan a trip below either Wilson or Pickwick. Five pounds is attainable on
any trip to these areas, but timing is everything. Generally the best part of spring ends
in a couple of weeks, then your odds improve dramatically in the fall after October 15.
If you would like to fish with me, you're invited!
