Well July has finally made it and the deep structure bite is in FULL Swing!
*****July 4th Special*****
8hr Full Day $350
4hr 1/2 Day $250
If you book a trip (full or 1/2) for the month of July I will enter your name in a drawing for an awesome Tackle Pack valued at over $250! (Lews, Picasso, Bass Boat Saver, Oak Ridge Marina + More!)
It is hot out but the fishing is even HOTTER! #18-34" is best, #graphing is a must, #better hold on tight, they are mean!
We have been snatching our fish out of anywhere from 14'-34'. They tend tobe very timing specific and schooled up in BIG numbers and when we get on em it's been an absolute whackfest. Its not uncommon to make 4-8 cast in a row and catch a fish on every cast.
Graphing is key.. My Lowrance HDS 9 Touches are getting one heck of a work out and makes my job so much easier. Target road beds, humps, ridges, points, drains, foundations, pond dams and bridges. If your looking for a graph lesson Now is the time!
We have been throwing a variety of baits to trigger bites. It often takes 5-10 cast to get the school fired up but then it's game on!
If you mark fish on the glued to the bottom try:
• Picasso Football Head Jig in Green Pumpkin/Amber with a Paca Craw in Alabama Craw
• 3/8 Strike King Shakey Head - Green Pumpkin Trick Work
• Crig with 1oz Picasso Tungsten weigh so you can feel the transitions and light bites. A GP trickworm, Baby Brush Hog, Brush Hog, Centipede or Ring Fry
• 3/4oz 10" Ole Monster in Junebug, GP or Blue Fleck
If you mark fish a few feet off the bottom:
• Picasso School-E-Rig or Bait Ball with Basstrix or Keitech swimbaits
• Talon Big Dandy Flutter Spoon. The 4" has been best bc it is the size if the air he big girls are chewing on. .
