To piggy back off what Devin said, I always idle whenever I am unsure about white poles, or anything else for that matter. I’m coming off plane, switching my graph to side scan, and going sloooooooow to see what’s around me. And of course checking my depth. Based off that information, I’ll either keep idling or get back up on plane. Idling is your best friend sometimes in the marsh, so don’t be shy about taking it slow. Let some other knuckle head pass you on plane and watch him destroy his lower unit first.

Hell yes! A smackdown!!!!! Great trip and even better report. The mosquito theory is interesting for sure. The weather looks nice this weekend and your report makes me want to get out there.

I agree with everyone else about using the fish’s momentum. I also try to make my boat flips smooth (not yanking it out the water). The smoother you are the better. I probably boat flip the majority of my trout, but the big ones (a judgement call once they surface) I net every time.

Well, I guess I’ll go add a CCBDDDGAT to my Tackle Warehouse cart now…
Great trip!

Holy smokes! Go get you a biggin. I would die and go to heaven for 26.5 inches….

Thank you for creating it. It’s far and away the best.

Sounds like it was a great tourney and I’m sad I couldn’t make it. I like your style of pre-fishing and scouting out some spots— Bass University stuff right there.

Tough day in some tough conditions, but man what great feedback from Devin on this trip. Definitely a good report to bookmark and come back to on another day with similar conditions.
How are you liking that Bass Boat? You have a new Ranger right?

My initial thoughts were to check the connections, but I see that you already did that. I would still load them up with some anti-corrosion spray for electronics.
Other than that, if the transducer is only 13 months old, sounds like it could just be a defective one. I’m sure that would be warrantied. Hopefully they get you straightened out!

Great report! Sounds like a fun day regardless of the lack of keeper sized trout. Nothing better than a holiday weekend on the water your family!

Great report man. Sounds like a weird day for sure but I’m glad you were able to make something happen. I’m loving all these reports coming out of this area— I can’t wait to get back out there!

Lol. I need to get me one of those hats for when I fish the bridges.

I didn’t end up going yesterday— that wind kept me in, so I did some maintenance on the boat and hung out with my family.
If you do go whack the daylights out of the catfish, I think it would be hysterical if you filmed it and put it on YouTube! You would be doing the Lord’s work cleaning up the marsh of all those catfish!
