Figured it was time for an updated freshwater report. Limit of specks on Talquin longline trolling today.

Straight to the grease!!
Well done!

Looks nice and fat!

Those look very yummy.

Minnows or jigs? how deep were they?

Nice! We caught some good-uns on Saturday trolling deep. Just look for the group of boats. It was so crowded last Saturday a boat with Arkansas stickers came within 20 feet of us trolling . Bit my tounge and kept moving. They are starting to roe up. We was trolling straight jigs in 30 feet. Should get better as the weather gets cooler.

Was trolling k-baits over old river oxbow and ledges. Various speeds and weights.

I try to avoid the boats for that reason. There is plenty of river channel that does not get touched. I am blessed as a fireman to not have to fish Weekends! I usually go to coast ,hybrid fishing, or do honey dos on Saturdays I am off.

I know of some good holes. It's just starting to get good with the slabs.
