ashburn 3/21

the fish were off today.

the morning was fruitless. calm and cold. clear water.
no bites.

went back in the evening and managed a few small ones.

2 of them boiled on a senko swimming just under the surface. I simply could get any drop strikes, as had been the pattern thursday, or  by using the drop twitch that  was fooling the big'ns in the wind on friday .

i saw schools of bluegill swimming toward the creek, with 12" bass here and there.  it was quite a procession, numbering at least a  several hundred members, in the 25 minutes i watched it- while only getting one dink bass to bite.

so in three days i have fished three very different bodies of water, without leaving the same area.

i saw somebody get a decent bass across the way, maybe a couple pounds.

Re: ashburn 3/21

I got out and tested a couple of the lakes yesterday (Heron and Pavilion). Nothing doing at Heron while I threw a jerkbait and senko (weightless). I saw a bunch of fish at Pavilion ranging from fingerlings to 2 lbs. I only landed a single fish (the bite was very slow and the fish were spooky) on a sexy shad crankbait #5. I plan on getting out again this evening (22nd)


If it were easy, they'd call it catching!

Re: ashburn 3/21

it was slow 4 me  (22nd)
evening would've been better, but i didnt get back.
saw a guy get a 2#'r on a wacky senko.
he said he caught one that was 7# there a few weeks ago.
seemed credible to me
