Brian.... Thanks for giving me some confidence to try throwing a jig again.. Before today, I've only caught 1 bass on a jig... I watched your video on jigs, put it into play on the Ocmulgee river today and slayed a few Shoal bass, and spotted bass...... !!

Caught 24 bass and played with a gator on the Oconee river, Milledgeville, Ga. yesterday... Caught 3 on a popping frog I found hanging in a tree 2 weeks ago, 5 or 6 on a 6th sense big swimbait I also found in the same tree...lol, and the rest on a green pumpkin w/gold flakes senko wacky rigged.. all were good size too...

Also, looks like I'm still in 1st place in the spotted bass category in our Younder Classic, with only a day left in the tournament....!!

That's a good spot to point out... I catch a lot of spots and largemouth on those sand drops on the oconee river and ocmulgee rivers in Milledgeville, ga.. The shoal bass on the Flint and ocmulgee rivers, I catch mainly in the shoals/rapids... but if I want a big old largemouth, I'll just throw to laydowns on the bank in the lazier areas of the rivers .... especially after a good few days of rain, after the river calms back down from being blown out, those sand drops are fire...

Ha ha... I've slipped back into 12th place.... I haven't been able to even fish for the last 7 days, I have a bad stomach infection.... I'm praying it clears up soon..!! Congratulations on some nice bass!!

I use 15lb braid to 12lb leader.. is this overkill or acceptable? And I use 50lb braid on my frog rod..

Had an interesting day yesterday on a fishing trip to the Chattahoochie river with my buddy Corey Richardson... we caught some good fish, and had a great time... we launched our kayaks from Belton Brudge boatramp, fished way up to the shoals, then fished back down... about a mile from the takeout ramp, we ran into a man and his son who were floating in innertubes from the ramp above down to Belton ramp.. They asked for help cause the man's legs were cramping and he couldn't go any further.. so, with our kayaks, we towed them about a mile down to the boatramp... They were super nice people, and we were more than happy to be of help.. needless to say, I didn't even get home till after 11pm ..lol
