Gonna try me best to throw a jig as much as I can the next couple of days. Just in the mood for the thump that I love so much from a jig bite. Not sure I enjoy fishing a bait as much as I do a flipping jig. Actually very excited to head that way in the morning and hit the lake. Need a decent net man, Mark? ..... Actually have a gentleman that is visiting from Indiana that I am fishing with for 2 days. He has never seen Fork and judging from the excitement in his messages he is chomping at the bit. Hope the fish gods smile down on the boat tomorrow and he gets a PB.

Dobyns Champion Extreme 744FH or 745FH with Daiwa Tatula Type R spooled with Seaguar Red Label 17 or 20th fluoro. Rod depends on jig weight and line depends on cover. I like the high speed reels on flipping.

Mark I feel like less of a hack knowing we had the same results today. That was our experience this afternoon.
