About 10 days ago I went fishing at Lisbon dam and i posted this pic of what i labeled a white bass, it is not a white bass it is a sheaphead aka drum. The second pic is of a white bass caught at the same dam.
Luckilly we ate the white bass and not the drum. Sunday wife and I went to lisbon armed with minnows and nitecrawlers, i caught only a nice big catfish, a handfull of small ones and 10 drum right in the whitewash on the dam wing using 1/2 a crawler on a 1/8 oz ballhead jig and a bobber 3 ft up from the bait and threw it into the whitewash and they found it and kept me busy.
The cat was a good reel dragging time as the cat swam circles in the wash and those bigger drum also are energtic. The very small smallies we caught were all on minnows same as the very small walleye which we had to put back , no smallie or walleye took the crawlers and i presented them on jigs, circle hooks and aberdeen hooks and i fished them 90% of the day.
