zip pow Posted September 27, 2011 Posted September 27, 2011 I started fishing a wide creek with a big ledge that drops from 10 to 25 foot with a big flat next to it all the fish seem to be holding on the deeper bottom I've caught a few fish here but I don't know if I'd be better off to start further back where the creek narrows or to keep working that ledge an flat? Any suggestions Quote

Any suggestions Follow the shad schools and you will find the bass. I'll be there the first week of October looking for the frog bite more than the channel break pattern. From what I have been reading, the catching is off this year with lots of excuses why (over harvesting, too many tournaments, bad weather, grass poisoning, etc.) Quote

gar-tracker Posted October 8, 2011 Posted October 8, 2011 There probably hoarding the shad up into the shallows feeding and then cruising back deep until the school gets ignited to feed again. Timing is everything in life, hit it right and you clean up. Quote
zip pow Posted October 8, 2011 Author Posted October 8, 2011 That kinda what I figured to there's so much bait on gville this fall they can eat when ever they want. I fished last night till midnight an caught a ton of fish went back to same area this morning no bites within a half mile of where I wacked them last night. I moved out to a 16 foot point an caught a couple. Quote
