I was the only one on the lake this morning. I only caught one but it was my new P.B. It was a nice fat one, 5.44 lbs. I was fishing submerged grass with a 3/8 oz. Dredge Brush Jig in about 9 feet of water. 

 

 

 

What I used:

Dobyns DX744c

Shimano CI4+

Suffix 832 braid - 30 lbs. with 10 lbs leader.

Siebert Outdoors - 3/8 oz. Dredge Brush Jig - Blue Craw

Zoom - Baby Bush Hog - Watermelon Seed

Jackson Cuda 12

Werner Carbon Camano 240 cm paddle

Gopro Hero 3+ Black

 

 

Here is a Gopro video of me catching it. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=opCvv7pubhs

A hearty congrats! Well done!

nice fish, living where you do, it would be tough to not have on a swimbait 24/7

I've never used a swimbait before, maybe I'll give them a try.

Thanks. I'm so glad I bought a kayak and I'm off the bank.

No question about it! A kayak changes the game! I rarely bank/dock fish anymore. Always out in the yak.

Good job!

Jigs are a sure fire way to catch fish like that Chris.. Theyre addicting too!

New PB's are always a Blast
