Productive lunch break

[TnRiver46]

Passed a dam while working and saw a lot of cars in the parking lot, something must be biting.........

 

got 2 drum, one striper, one white bass and lost a big crappie at my feet, all in about 40 minutes. Used a hair jig I tied in olive/grey and tipped it with Bobby garland baby shad.

Show me more of this Bobby garland hybrid hair jig ?

Oh man, I don’t know what I’m doing wrong:

@TnRiver46 Post: “Went to the cabin to do some construction work. Went out to the lake for lunch and got 6 large mouth bass, 4 small mouth bass, 11 bowfin, 6 white bass...”

A week later

@TnRiver46 posts: “Went to lunch for a half hour and got 6 drum, 4 stripers, 6 white bass and more crappie to have a wedding fish fry.”

 

Just stop it! I am so green with envy I’m looking like the Hulk’s little brother that fell asleep in the sun and woke up with an olive green tan!

I told you before, me and you need to go into biz together. ? 

 

You know I’m kidding bud. Nice fish you caught. Congrats bud! ?

@Jigfishn10, you are hilarious! I better have squirrel caught near that dam tomorrow or I’m gonna have to work the weekend......... and if I’m working the weekend I’m stopping at the dam of course! And I forgot to mention the lake house needs a toilet valve and gutters cleaned................ probably leave a minnow out while doing that............. I’ll be covered up in drums if I keep working!!

Yeah, like the hair color on that jig! Envious!

 

In all honesty, that looks sweet? Did that catch the linesider too! Looks like that’ll make it into my saltwater arsenal. 
 

The saltwater Santa came early, will be posting up the saltwater “a-salt” tackle for next season.

Yeah I caught everything with that. I saw a walleye caught also! Good time of year for tail waters. I just buy jig heads and tie hair on with thread, easy peezy

You ever make it up this way, lemme know! Congrats 46!

Yessir. You look like you need to replace that “T” hat for a “B” hat anyway.

 

At least for the time your fishing in Lake Atlantic. ?

Fished that many times in a kayak - you can see them letting water out of the lock. I was sitting right over it once when the started letting water out - felt like I shot 10 ft in the air. Dang near had to change pants

Yikes! A barge went down river just after that drum.
