That is a good one. Glad you made it back safe.

Same pattern as you described....timber and brush from 18-30' on 1/8 oz jig tipped with minnows. Didn't matter if they were alive or dead. Caught 8 on the same one. Cut my last minnow into 3 pieces to scratch out a limit. I tried a jig briefly but no takers.  Question for ya K ,was reading the r. bob reports. So when using minner on a jig. Are you using whole minnow or a part?? Hooking em in the lips? Iam am mostly a jig guy but Whatever it takes .  Thjanks may get up there on a weekday. Enjoyed the pics. When do we eat LOL.

I’m lazy and don’t have light gear. I have 17# and 15# fluorocarbon line on my crankbait rods. I tie 1/4 ounce or 3/16 jigs to get down faster. I hook the minnows behind their eyes and go down through the back of the head and turn the hook up past the mouth. Learned that from Cody Tucker (who I highly recommend) I imagine I could do better with lighter setup, but I can wrestle them out of the timber pretty easily.

Water was stained pretty bad where it has been clear. Bite was slow, only caught a few small ones and some catfish.
