Tough Conditions On Water

13-10mm 0f the osage, glaze, chunk/bluffy rock

Ben and I got on the water this morning around 8:30. As i was driving out of my cove i noticed there was no wind, not even chop on the water! Right away i knew it would be a tough morning, the wind has played such a role in catching good fish lately.After fishing quite a bite in the Glaze last week Ben and I decided to go check out the water up past the toll bridge. We headed back in a creek and started fishing, due to no chop on the water what so ever we fished with jigs targeting depth between 2- 12 feet, around big chunk rock. While up there i couldn’t help but notice how clear the water is up there, this will be good for the upcoming jerk bait season, i just don’t think that bite is there yet. Dont get me wrong you can still catch stick bait fish, i just don’t think the consistant good fish will come by way of that bait yet. After fishing around for about a n hour with no bites Ben catches a small keeper in about 7 foot of water on a jig. We continued on for about 30 more mins, with no bites we headed back to the Glaze. The bite stayed slow into the afternoon. I finally found a secondary point with a little chop on it and threw the wiggle wart in there and caught a 3.5 pound fish! was nice to finally get a bite on this tough day!! We continued fishing the glaze until about 1 picking up 1 more nice KY keeper.
