Drum & Carp

[riverrat12]

Crawfish are definitely one of there favorites. If you want to use a lure you can't go wrong with a 1/4 oz jig and grub. I like white and chartreuse. The thing about the grub is you will catch everything and it helps keep young in's occupied. Throw it right in the white water. Good luck, Chuck

Don't know about the 'carp' .... but, if you can dig up some "green worms" along the river bank, you'll have a killer Drum bait !! I used to do that down on the KY River (at the ferry) back when there was a boat dock there (50+yrs ago) and Drum were the most often caught fish.
