| Fishing Notes |
|---|
Today, I spent my time fishing and idling to mark brush piles in coves at the 17mm of the Osage. When I saw brush piles that seemed to hold fish, I stopped to fish and caught all but one fish today on the jig in brush piles from 10′-25′ deep. The majority of the fish that I caught today were toward the backs of coves around secondary points. Today was a bit of an exploratory day fishing as I am hoping to map many brush piles around secondary points and channel swings for the winter time jerk bait and jig season. Sorry, not pics for the website today as I left my camera in the boat :). I will be sure to upload them tomorrow. Hopefully tomorrow Ameren will start drawing the water down for the winter draw down, that should position the fish in more predicable areas on points and secondary points. |
