Pete-K Posted March 16, 2011 Posted March 16, 2011 Meeting a buddy at The State Park Boat ramp at Pickwick at 10 am this morning. Were going to see if we can find a few brown fish today. He fished Monday for 6 hours and did not get a hit. But then again hes not fished a lot, but out on spring break from College so its fishing time. Been a lot of years without fishing Pickwick for bass. But used to have 100 fish days this time of year on Pickwick 20 years ago. And I have the itch to get back into bass fishing... Not many bass fishing out of a Lund tiller boat on Pickwick LOL But tired of chasing those Big Catfish and Striper's. So going back to brown fish again. Got my Bandits and secret spinner baits hooked up. Used to make spinner baits and painted my own Cranks may have to get back into this.. Pete Quote
sbrown Posted March 18, 2011 Posted March 18, 2011 Hey if you bet back to making baits again, let us know. Sounds good to me. I'd like to own some of my own "secret weapons" Quote

bankerbasser Posted March 20, 2011 Posted March 20, 2011 Fished PW Friday & Saturday, pre fishing for club tourney Friday for tourney today. I was really surprised at how tough it was. I really thought we would all catch a lot of fish but it didn't work out that way. First place was 4 fish that weighed 9 lbs. Big fish was 5 lbs 6 oz. Most fish were caught shallow on Redeye Shads or square bill crankbaits. A few jerkbait fish were caught. Water temps started out around 56 and warmed up to 61 by mid afternoon. I caught several 14.75 in fish on flats that were just getting into shallow water. The main river was stained, but most of Yellow Creek, Dry Creek, etc were ok. I guess that's why they call it fishin' and not catchin' ! Quote
jiggin_it Posted March 20, 2011 Posted March 20, 2011 saw a 28.66 lb sack toated out today. needless to say he won the tourney by 12 lbs. Quote
sbrown Posted March 20, 2011 Posted March 20, 2011 Someone always seems to find a load of em in the river. Quote
Super User roadwarrior Posted March 22, 2011 Super User Posted March 22, 2011 Already posted pics in "Outings", but the river was on fire before the sun came out around 10:30 Saturday. We were fishing gravel banks in 8' water. Square bill crankbaits ruled! 8-) Quote
