12.22.20
Fished solo today from 11 to 2:45. The weather was great with the temps nearing 60 degrees and decreasing winds as the day went on. I haven’t been to Crow Creek for a few weeks so I decided to concentrate there. The water temp is still in the 64-degree range. The water is extremely clear.
Hit a couple of laydown trees with a jig with a hula grub with no success near the Keowee Town Ramp, then fished the rest of the day in the Crow Creek area from Little Crow back.
Fishing was slow but due to the low wind I could really work over the creek bottoms and ditch cuts very methodically. Fishing mainly in water from 50’ to 65’ deep with a jig rig and drop shots I managed 7 spots with the five best measuring 80”.
I could mark fish but I don’t think I caught any that I could “see” on the graph, the fish that bit was in the cover at the very bottom of the structure mentioned.
The bite was so light I can’t even describe how I would know I was bit, other than “something feels different”.
The jig rig was tipped with a HulastickZ in The Deal color. I did manage 2 on a drop shot. One was on a morning dawn Roboworm. The other was on a Megabass Hazedong shad.
No topwater action occurred. The past few trips I have managed to catch fish on top, but not today.
The last drop of the day yielded an 18” spot. And it was time to go!
