Tips – Worm wmred/Paddle Tail/ Rooster Tail
· Fished near center of river up past rock wall below island.
· Channel (70-80 feet wide with low grass about 10 inches below surface/use rooster tail and paddle tail/ and with open pockets / Use Worm wmred/Paddle tail / ) created by high wind and boaters wind higher grass on edges.
· Fish edges especially cut ins(depressions large and small), open spots and corners where channel flows into open water or bigger channel.
· When sun is lower in the sky( cast worm into sun to ether side of the reflection hitting the water)
· If there are open pockets in the middle of thick grass get in there to them or on the way up make your own ( on shady side near faster water or some other structure) pocket or cut in and come back to it later.
· After all these years it is finally clear fishing the grass is like Xmas everyday. Yeah !!!
