Nice going. That's the area that was hot at this time last year. I made some rigs like what you was using. Be up next week. Was you using emeralds or Goldie's.

Emerald shiners from Jennettes on Catawba. Nice size. We were cutting in 3's.

We're you south of D can

I believe he is referring to south of green island. When we got them last year it was about in between Catawba and South bass island.

Ok never went to Green last year, but did have about two weeks we did really well around D can. Thanks for the reply

Badboards is correct on the location. About halfway between Catawba and Green. D can was a few miles west of us and we could see boats there including a headboat from PC. We stopped short of a pack of boats when we could see fish on our sonar. Other boats were closer to Green and we heard reports of a perch bite around Rattle Snake Island. We also had some very good Walleye marks in the area we fished.
