A good night on Herrington

[stillcastin]

Went to Herrington on Friday night and the hybrids were biting. Fished all night and threw several smaller ones back. It's fun when they are hitting! I have a good picture to post, but it says i'm not allowed to post attachments. Anyone know what i need to do to post attachments?

If you dont mind me asking how did you catch em?? I fish Herrington a bit, 99 percent of the time for bucketmouths but I have tried to throw jerkbaits under dock lights before just to see if a hybrid would come up and grab at it. Very nice night at the "dead sea". How did the lake look by the way. I have been avoiding it while it has been up due to debris.

Started out with shiners (free line) on a point. After dark, went to crank baits on the lights. I went out again last night and had a huge one on. He peeled about 30 yards of line and i couldn't turn him. He finally cut me off on the rocks. I actually caught a pretty good largemouth last night from the "dead sea". Biggest i have got out of Herrington (probably 3 lbs) but i don't bass fish. I took a friend last night and he said he really didn't think there were fish in the lake till last night. The lake is getting better. I actully didn't hit anything last night. It's coming down a little too.

Bet you had fun cleaning all those fish

I did....while you were watching me, acting like you were loading the boat for an hour.

What is the daily creel on hybrids I'm just interested not pointing fingers??

[stillcastin]

15 daily limit. No more than 5 fish in the daily creel limit may be more than 15 inches long. By the way....3 of is worked on this stringer of about 25 fish.

Thanks for the info I may try to fish for sime whites/hybrids this weekend drowning minnows around dock lights.

That's good stuff. Only been there once, but didn't have any luck. I'm not very familiar with the lake, but I have heard about the hybrids. I have just recently bought my own boat, and was looking for a good place to break it in. I thought about trying Cumberland this weekend, but last weekend was pretty weak. Are you putting out lights for these?
