Gravois, mainly vertical jigging up/down every 8 or 10 seconds or so. suspended above brush or under lift floats. 10 to 12 feet deep. 4 lb line, 1/16 head, garlic smelly jelly smeared on the jig body. The normal blue/white or blue ice did not work! |
Fishing Notes |
---|
Bite was tough, had to move around a lot. The center section of the Gravois between Indian Creek and the bluff across from Coffman Beach was the best. If I went beyond that zone, the water was dirtier and I could not get bit. Also, around points was better in some cases but not all. I have over 200 hours on my 2014 Mercury Optimax with no Maint. done yet other than lower unit grease change. Great Product! |
