Quick Successful 2 Hour Trip Pre Thanksgiving

Here is a write up for the Keowee Anglers.  Another good trip with Hunter!

11.27.19

My son came in to visit for Thanksgiving and we had a short time period to see if we could catch a few between noon til 2 PM before a the Thanksgiving activities began.

Headed to a creek channel in  Crow Creek that has been holding fish for a month.

We brought 10 to the boat with 9 being keepers.  Size was from 13” to the biggest at 16”.  Lost several others as they rocketed to the top.

We dropshotted and freestyled baits in 55’ of water.

We alternated through plastics that were tipped to the terminal tackle with Reins Bubble Shaker worms, Megabass Hazedong  and Zman Hulastickz.

I used the freestyle method which I learned about in the winter KA meeting that our speaker was a BFL tournament angler.

I caught 3 doing this and the biggest fish came on this method.

It’s basically dropping a freestyle jig head and doing nothing with it as you hold it above the suspended fish.

If you want to know more google “Paul Mueller Freestyle”.  

I would not have known about this technique if I didn’t attend the KA meeting.  Always good info given out.

Really fun when a new technique works.

What a club!

The water temp was 67 degrees and the air up there was high 50’s breezy and raw as fog was still hugging the water at times.
