    Started the day pitchin to wing dams which turned out to be slower then expected. Decided to switch gears and send the three ways down and cover some water. This put a good number of 14-20″ eyes and saugers in the boat. F7s and 2 oz of lead in 12-16 fow worked best. Before calling it a day we hit a couple more dams and hooked up with this big girl. She went 29.75″. See ya down there.

    Thats a nice fish Jake. What did she hit? Looks like she has been eating more than just plastics.

    jake, great fish there pal. i was wondering what kind of structure you are targeting with 3ways on pool 2. I had a rod rigged from being in red wing and thought i might give it a try the other day if things slowed down and never got it out. Just curious.

    Here is a pic of one of the heavier eyes that have made it to the boat this fall. She went 28.5″ and weighed 11 even.

    Those sure are a couple bruisers. Going to give it a try Tues evening down there, sounds like the guys dragging jigs may be doing a little better than the pitchers. What are the best locations for dragging? Do you stay close to the shoreline structure or work around the dams. Last time I was down there it looked like they were going to close the road going into the 494 bridge access, is it open yet.

    The 494 landing was open all weekend.
    I have not had much luck dragging… All my fish have come pitching.

    We have been dragging in mostly 5 to 10′ of water.
