Fishing at Marina Bay at Branched Oak Lake

9/26/2020

0 Comments

 
Warm, Saturday morning for fishing at Branched Oak Marina Bay area, started out seeking Crappie off the breakwaters, found small fish biting minnows but nothing to brag about! Fun to catch and release small Crappies on light tackle. Change up, looked for Fiddler Catfish and tried a variety of baits - leeches, minnows, Canadian nightcrawlers, and shrimp on jigs and Satra Special rig.. Picked up 3 fiddlers on these Catfish fodder. Also caught 3 small F. Drum that seemed to like the jigged crawlers! Trip was a good one to work on getting outdoors and some good sunshine for mental health, a needed break from cutting pasture cedar trees. Always an adventure on the water! Checked for fall Bolete mushrooms on my way home, again, none found, I won’t give up!

Plump 18” bucketmouth caught at Lake Wanahoo. The bass bite was hot!!
The bass fishing was hot!  Really hot catching 20+ bucketmouth on the edge of these drop-offs using the ultralight rods and light line jigs with leeches and crawlers.  Picked up a number of fair Bluegill up to 8.5” (Catch and Release, read my thoughts on this technique here), one 10” crappie, and a dreaded 16” carp, but fun to catch on light tackle. Best bass fishing (12”-18” fish) for the year at Wanahoo!
