Ken and I fished Center Hill from 6:30 to 11:00am this morning. We caught and released 15 mix of Smallmouth-Largemouth and Spots. We have had a TON of rain/storms on and off this week and today was my best bet to go. Thinking about all the rain I decided to run to the back of a creek as far as I could go and see if there was any colored water. We didn’t find any but we did find some that was slightly stained. We started there and 15 later it appears to have been a good call. Water temp was 76 degrees and for the most part of the morning there was no wind to speak of and a good cloud cover. Lately I have had a decent top water/craw bite. No top water fish today but the craw still works. Everyone has a favorite craw-If you haven’t tried the Crush City Clean Up Craw www.rapala.com I urge you to pick up 2 or 3 packs. Rig them on a VMC 4/0 Wide Gap Hook www.vmchooks.com use as light of a weight that you feel comfortable with (I used a 1/8 VMC Tungsten) Use a good Braid like Sufix 20lb Yellow Performance-and a Sufix fluorocarbon leader. www.sufix.com and you’ll be good to go. Don’t hesitate to start shallow and work you way out of the creek. Hope this helps-weather is suppose to be good to go next week so I’ll let you know how I do.
