Nolin Saturday

Went to Nolin Saturday morning, started right at daybreak at Moutadier, fished a buzzbait around the dock and the rip rap around the dock, ended up catching 3 with on being a keeper, lost 2, which were decent size fish, they werent blowing up on them, kind of just sucking them in, hard to know when to set the hook. After the sun came up rode to Brier Creek, starting flipping jig,s, and we tore them up, probaly caught 20 bass between us, only about 5 keepers, but the action stayed hot all the way till noon, could not believe it, we were flipping around wood, and rock bluffs, all fish came in between 2' and 8'. Around noon went to a point, caught one keeper right of the bat, then missed 2 more, it was weird both fish that i missed hit the crap out of a 10" worm, set the hook, missed, and pulled back a piece of worm about 3" long, must not of had the whole thing in their mouth, but i never had a fish hold on so tight, that it ripped the worm in half. The point had a lot of stumps on it, and the fish hit about 18'. Overall a great day of fishing, didnt think we would catch that many. Probaly best 5 would of weighed 9 or 10lbs. We got out of there about 1:00. Not many people on the water at all.

Nice report, thanks.

I agree as well on the nice report given....:)

nolin has been real weird for me this year..I was down there the saturday before and caught 20-30 all on top ,on the sammy,,at 1 in the afternoon..about 98 degree's..actually lost my favorite sammy when a real big nasty green fish decided to blast it at the boat..great day of fishing though..not alot of big ones..but had a blast

same thing happened to me at iberia last week. I went through a whole pack of brush hogs when the fish would swim off ,I jerked, Came back with no fish and half a hog!It drove me nuts! I would let them swim for 5 seconds with it and still miss them. Strangest trip I ever had. we caught alot of fish the biggest a whopping 13 inches!

I know what you mean, i know that they were good sized fish, from marking them on the point. I had never had a fish hold on so tight that it ripped the worm in half. I did the same thing on the last fish, hit it hard, let him swim for a good 4 or 5 seconds, tried to cross his eyes, pulled back a mutilated 10" worm. Next time i go back to the same spot, with try a wooly hogtail, maybe the shorter bait will help.

What colors were they hitting,
