I've been fighting an ear infection and haven't been able to get out for a while. Is anyone catching sauger? If the bite is on, I might be able to live with the consequences for a few days.
I'm in some groups too. Everything I have been seeing is below the dam. I don't really want to park my truck down there.On Facebook, I'm a member of a old hickory lake group. I have saw a few pics of sauger catches lately.
is it crappie time yet?I'm seeing several reports of people catching them on the Cumberland river.
Wish I had time to go. I know they're chomping!is it crappie time yet?
it's ALWAYS crappie time to me...is it crappie time yet?
West side is normally 1 1/4 or 1 Oz jig. I refuse to fish without minnows but a lot of people around here just use plastic. Most days it seems to work just as well but every now and then the minnows will catch 3x the amount of fish plastic will. If you decide to make a trip let me know and I'll give you the most updated report I possibly can. I don't get to fish as much as I like anymore but I know plenty of people who do.Do the sauger bite similar jigs as crappie? 1/8 oz or 1/16 oz hair jig or is it much more different? I've been considering a trip to Pickwick.
Sounds like a fun day.Managed to finally get after them today below Old Hickory dam. Caught a couple sauger, 1 keeper. Also caught two bluegill, a crappie and a white bass. Not a bad day.
have you tried the Berkley "Gulp" minnows? i've caught all manner of fish using them lip hooked like a live minnow, as well as tipping jigs with them.refuse to fish without minnows
