I got to go fishing yesterday from a spot where I fished while rehabing from a Sept. back surgery at the Livingston State Park. It's a great spot because with a decent cast you can be in 50' of water right on the river channel. I caught some very nice blues there last fall.
Karen loaded the red wagon and we made the 200 yard or more hike to the bulkhead and cast out some crushed minnows on 2 rods. We eat lunch and then we couldn't pack up quick enough to avoid the rain, it soake dus good on the march back to the truck.
It was a great day! It beats the heck out of being at home 24/7.
Here are some pics of rehab reef, and my best box of hardware for white bass. The Silver Dollar jigging spoon is killer, I have absolute confidence in it when I vertical jig for white bass.
The "little georges" are great to troll, in shallow water especially, when a rod gets a hit trolling withone the other anglers can take the other rods out of the holders and jig the bottom with them as the trolled fish is fought and usually you can hook everybody up on the same pass. the crappie jigs are terrific behind a jet diver and cheaper than Pet Spoons. The other slab style jiging spoons are not my favorite, but will at times out fish other spoons jigging.
I always keep some crappie hooks and a few stray split shots, and a casting cork, to fish ilve shad.
An in-line spinner or 3 are good to have sometimes in the summer the whites go to bulkheads around the lake and root shad from them, they all but disapear from deepwater spots like the hump then. In-lines trolled up close to wolf creek park and places like it can be red hot when nothing is going on elsewhere.
A couple of extra XXA batteries for the gps, if I get to the lake and don't have my gps, I turn atound and go get it, they are that important to catching whites in the big lake.
My jet divers are on rods ot I would have them in the pic. I use 10' and 20' and troll both to find fish.
Go white bass fishing without at least 1 rattle trap, no way.
If you see this guy around the lake, do not try to apprehend him, he is harmless ,even if scary looking.
Any Livingston reports?
