Should have checked the weather - wind was up. Fishable til the shockers showed up. Looks like they were keeping very large BGs. Went to the other side - they did too - so I left. 69F water - mostly 16 FOW. All on the BS Chub and Reptile Auto - EC lil Nasty hooks - 100% hook ups today.

Started off with a double

People can shock and keep fish? Really?? Nice gills by the way. I think I may have to try and mimic you on the chub jig.

Nice pics.......in Central IL had a beautiful lake that was flooded back water national refuge....first was the eagles nest and we could only be so close so the blocked off the flooded brush were all the crappies flooded. Following years the shocked......now....nothing left. The state shockers raped that lake clean and took them to lakes unknown. Still is a heart breaker for me

Thnx guys for the comments.

Bucko - it was DFW doing the shocking - supposed to be a study, them people need to learn how to handle fish.... Shocking fish of the spawn bed can't be too healthy. Chub and the Chub Bellyspinner are deadly on the BGs, you need to add them to your arsenal.

Good days fishing ... Shocking Bedding fish can't be good ..

Looks like they are moving Bluegill and RE to a new pond at their Imperial Wildlife Area. According to Kwin's comments on FNN.

Figured they were moving them Anthony - don't respect how they collect fish. And wish they would've taken them from some other lake. If they were smart they should've taken them from DVL - wait we are talking about DFW.....

Time to head down to Lake Skinner. It's gonna get hit real hard this year. BGs don't got nowhere to hide from chivo and the poachers!

Wonder why they don't raise brood fish?
