Siebert Outdoors Posted February 15, 2012 Posted February 15, 2012 When are you going Roadwarrior? Quote
Super User roadwarrior Posted February 16, 2012 Author Super User Posted February 16, 2012 Driving down to Florence, AL on Friday, fishing all day Saturday and maybe Sunday morning. Monday is Presidents Day. I may fish below Pickwick Dam then. Quote
Siebert Outdoors Posted February 16, 2012 Posted February 16, 2012 Your a lucky man!!! Good luck in your adventure and bring back some pictures. Quote
Super User 00 mod Posted February 16, 2012 Super User Posted February 16, 2012 Hey Kent, I will be fishing the river Sunday, and will give you a report on what to expect! Jeff Quote
Super User roadwarrior Posted February 16, 2012 Author Super User Posted February 16, 2012 You know I don't like to waste time on green fish this time of year, but with all that's happening right now, I'm refocused, at least for this weekend! Quote
Super User 00 mod Posted February 16, 2012 Super User Posted February 16, 2012 Well I'm back with a vengence against those brown fish.....started last weekend! They were the right color, just not the right size or species! Jeff Quote
Brian Needham Posted February 16, 2012 Posted February 16, 2012 that is a big fear..... with so many new people going to Pickwick (i never been but will this year HOPE) how many people will mount/eat the lucker they were lucky enough to land....... seen/heard many lakes get LOTS of attention, only to be 5 years later not be able to catch shorts.

Super User roadwarrior Posted February 16, 2012 Author Super User Posted February 16, 2012 Very few lunkers will be caught and eaten. The "lucky" fishermen don't catch many big bass. 1 Quote
Pete-K Posted February 19, 2012 Posted February 19, 2012 Driving down to Florence, AL on Friday, fishing all day Saturday and maybe Sunday morning. Monday is Presidents Day. I may fish below Pickwick Dam then. I plan on being below the dam or above it not sure yet. But will be bass fishing one of those Monday. If you need a ride let me know. Pete Quote
Super User roadwarrior Posted February 19, 2012 Author Super User Posted February 19, 2012 FEBRUARY 18, 2012 PICKWICK ONE HUNDRED POUNDS OF FISH ALMOST KILLED ME!! 2 Quote

Super User Dwight Hottle Posted February 19, 2012 Super User Posted February 19, 2012 Green fish, brown fish & even silver/striped fish. WTG Kent. Quote
Super User A-Jay Posted February 19, 2012 Super User Posted February 19, 2012 WOW ! Those Stripers must have been a BLAST ~ A-Jay Quote
Super User South FLA Posted February 20, 2012 Super User Posted February 20, 2012 Looks like FUN! Great catch! Quote
lazeebum Posted February 20, 2012 Posted February 20, 2012 Live bait? I fished the barge canal and Cypress creek Saturday. I also drifted the bank in front of McFarland. I guess I am gonna have to buy a cast net and learn to use it. Great day! And for what it is worth, the few bass that I caught were extremly healthy. While I did not have a great trip, I had a good one. If you can get on Pickwick in cool to cold weather at all I would highly recommend it. Quote
Super User roadwarrior Posted February 20, 2012 Author Super User Posted February 20, 2012 All of our fish were caught on a Johnson Silver Minnow fished as the center lure on an Alabama Rig. Quote
lazeebum Posted February 20, 2012 Posted February 20, 2012 Thanks, I have used the Silver Minnow before with success, but I have not used the Alabama Rig yet. But I guess that is next. Quote
Super User roadwarrior Posted February 22, 2012 Author Super User Posted February 22, 2012 I look forward to our trip to Guntersville. You will make my day look "average". I have never seen four 10's and a kicker! Quote
jisrael83 Posted February 25, 2012 Posted February 25, 2012 RW, Were you fishing with all 5 hooks on that rig below the dam? I assumed that Tennessee laws were enforced over there and that anglers could only use 3 hooks. Do you know which is correct? I'm planning on fishing below the dam tomorrow and am going to try using an A-rig (and others). Would you mind telling me what pattern you were fishing? Water temp, depth, retrieval, structure, etc... And possibly include any GPS cords? Thanks! Quote
Super User 00 mod Posted February 25, 2012 Super User Posted February 25, 2012 He was fishing Wilson dam on pickwick. 5 arms allowed. Above pickwick dam is 3 arms only until you hit Mississippi water. Jeff Quote
jisrael83 Posted February 26, 2012 Posted February 26, 2012 10-4... I thought he was below Pickwick dam and I was going to hit it up tomorrow, but it looks like below Wilson is hotter. What do you think? (Thanks Jeff!) Jason Quote
