Why didn't someone tell me is was cold down there!!!!lol,Oh my what a day I only took one truck break...well deserved came up from the creek after about 3 and a half hour ...caught 5 little channels about 20 in..2 buffalo 1 drum and 1 carp no sauger all rough fish!!!catfish I caught about 4 ft slip bobber blood treble with three minows on .1 fish I thought was huge sauger....not... horsefly, if you go go tomorrow river is fallin go on down past the rocks to colgate creek ...fish the mouth white jig caught the rest like that....fun on semi ultra light for the river. When I came up I put a carolinia rig with the blood hook and three big minnows right below the rocks picked it up ones and thought it was hung let it lay while I threw a jig nothin on the jig but reeled in a 18 1\2 inch sauger I didn't know I had in the main streem right below the rocks pea gravel area. What I think this tells me is the rough fish don't mind the salt but maybe the sauger do... he was in the main stream I mean she big belly and tight too huh!! Mark your right it is to dang cold .I had to keep my b#$R warm...lol...chuck P.s. don't forget your minnow net..
