Fishing Notes |
---|
This morning my brother Dave and I got on the water about 7:30. We spent the first couple of hours sinking brush piles. We started doing some fishing and fished hard from about 10-noon. We fished some brush piles around docks with a couple of short fish. Then we did some searching for a good bite on docks in the backs of some coves, with only one short fish. If the bait fish are not on the back of cove, the bite is simply not there. Then we made a run into the Glaize to check on recently sunk brush piles. It can be quite a challenge finding and hitting freshly sunk piles. After a couple of hours of simply searching, casting and dragging to finally hit the brush, we did about 45 minutes of hard fishing with a few short fish and one small keeper off laydowns and shallow wood. |
