The Garhole, which in previous posts has been referred to as the private hole, has recovered its original, and I think better, name. I went there Friday morning planning on an early start that did not happen. A culvert on an access road, that really needed lowering, was dug up and was across the road. I had decided to go back to Lake Ferguson when I ran across someone that gave me an alternative route to the hole. Due to the detour, fishing started at 8:15. I started off with a DT-6 of course and pretty quickly caught 8. Then I picked up a shaky head and caught some more. Just to experiment I put on an XD-5 and got a jarring bite right at the boat from a fish that I saw was a good one. Then I caught a 4 and then a 4 3/4. Seems like a big school had arrived. They did not stay for a long time but it was fun while they were there. I moved a little distance and caught a few more on the DT-6 and had another good one pull off that I had a good look at. Going around the bank with a DT-6 it seemed like fish were everywhere. I think they were just up and feeding. Around 10 things started to slow down and I went searching. Catching one here and there but not hitting the mother lode of fish. In the process I caught all types of fish on the DT-6, including a monster red bellied bream. The DT-6 is an amazing bait that everything seems to like. This morning the guy that won the Major League Fishing event on TV held up a DT-6 as one of his winning baits and mentioned that it was “just something about it that fish like”. I agree wholeheartedly ! The water was exceptionally clear, so after things slowed, I put on a deep diving 3 hook jerk bait. Right off the bat a good fish grabbed and made a break for the open water. It jumped and I could hear all those little balls inside rattling away. When it hit the water it dove and pulled loose. That was the second nice fish that got away but it gave me confidence it the jerk bait. I was throwing it over a large sunken tree and visually trying to work it through the limbs without getting it hung up. On two occasions in the clear water I saw the fish come up out of the top and get the bait. I do not fish with a jerk bait very much but I think it will be added to my Garhole repertoire. I ended up with 26 bass at 1:15 after draining my water jug. The FOD was 4 3/4 and the fish size stair stepped down from there. I had a pile of worms with the tails bit off due to a lot of tail biting small bass which is encouraging for the future. The small bream were swarming every where which ensures a good food source for those small bass to grow.
