I was joined by another member today on the river who i will keep a secret in case he chooses not to be witness to the stink fest that was jigging today.
Crap generation led to crap results. My fishing companion boated the first toad suager of the day. If that fish wasnt 7 pounds it was 7". Lol.
Several long hours later it felt like my jig was hammered....caught me off gaurd and i almost dropped my rod. I had visions of monster toothy fish at first....then i thought catfish.....it ended up being a drum.
We did some exploring....all fruitless. The wind blowing up river was more powerful than the 1 generator was pushing us so that was another turd on the already steamy pooh pile of the day.
I did manage one nice sauger.....my fishing partner luckily had the net ready cause the hooked popped out and he sprang into action and gracefully scooped my fish up salvaging the day.
It was brutal....that was the first time ive fished there with that little generation.
I wont be doing that again. Lol
It was still a fun day though.
If i keep telling everybody i know how and where to catch these things and you come with me and we have days like this, your all gonna think im either full of $hit or need to be in a straight jacket and evaluated. Lol
I swear thats not the case.

All this is true........

I am also a damn good net man! Legal or not Merv, I am good at it.

I did get a good laugh as John was struggling to get his left hand out of his pocket as the drum was pulling the rod out of his right hand.

It was cold, it was windy and not many fish were caught. I would do it all over again because those fish are damn tasty.
