Nice fish What kind of baits are you trolling? We werent trolling. We were using live bait and drop lining them down to the schools. Live Shad. They wouldnt last there long and wed have a fish on. fish were 40 to 70 ft deep. Making the most of it while we can . The New stupid live bait law comes into effect in less then 10 days.

Thanks Yall..My wife loved it. We are fishing hard next week..the new bait laws go into effect August 24th I believe and it will be tough getting enough bait. But we are working hard to figure out cast netting shad here at Smith Lake for shad. It is very tough but we might have figured a way. Sad thing is when you cast, you get blue backed herring, crappie, bream , silver tailed minnows and very few shad or very SMALL shad. And we CANT use herring, or net caught crappie and bream here. Sibuki rig the bream or crappie and I think it is okay. Im still looking it up. Ill do that at night if I have to , to fish in the am. Is it legal to use caught ( not netted) bream , crappie, silver tailed minnows, Etc?) It is not very productive but Im going to cast net as much as I can and see if I can round some shad up. Ive started trying artificial, using down riggers, lead core line and a variety of baits: Umbrella rigs, Buck tail jigs, proven swimmers, and I have caught a couple a day before I hurt myself. This new law is silly unless they let us use the dang herring here. They are here like crazy...throw a net...herring...but we cant use them for bait? Crazy as heck. Have to use Native fish only..except herring , Bream and crappie...LOL. The Fish and Game guys need to take in the reality of the situation. Let us use herring that are here and I wont mind the new law at all. They are HERE..in abundance. So far Asian Carp arent. Let the guys use herring and no one would ever bring bait here. The stripers like ONE thing more then shad,..and that is Blue Backed Herring! that is what we use in the ocean too.

State police in their big grey boat and the wardens in that REALLY nice light blue Nautic Star center console. Thing is sweet! Id love to fish from that boat..it is a beast. And then that one day I fished with a dang Fish and Game guy we both know...lol. That could be...well..awkward!
