Great day on the big pond yesterday. My plan was to head up lake first thing in morning to put a wally in the boat before switching to the liver soak. Got a nice 21” and missed 2 at the spot then the sun came up and is was time to switch gears. Met up with the crew off Elba. The Mamba had the spot fertilized with diced up Frank Purdue’s bird organ and Rocco’s rod doubles over. After a few runs a giant channel cat comes up and we were all laughing. A few hybrids were caught there but the fish were super finicky.
The crew decided move up the lake and spread out a little to see if we could find some more active fish. We found a good flurry of action off a point where we had solid hook ups for about and hour. It’s crazy how light these fish slurp those livers in but once you set the hook they go full bulldog on you. Awesome dadding skills watching Fast Eddie put his son Chase on a few of the bruisers. I had a blast also hand lining a few on my yo-yo reel.
