Fishing Notes |
---|
Today Jack and I fished the upper lower Osage river area from the 60mm to the 64mm. The current was very strong running along the docks along the main river channel which would actually carry our baits either under the docks which was good or away from the docks, depending on which side of the docks we fished. We caught a lot of short fish and only a couple of barely 15′ keepers, the bigger fish were just not biting today. The most productive and predictable bait was the square bill crank bait worked around isolated cover, mostly wood laydowns in shallow water in the backs of coves in about 2′ to 4′ of water. While every bait that we threw today produced fish, we could not find a big fish bite. |
