Hodges report March 17

[Early release]

Made it out early to Hodges on Sunday morning, which was no small effort, since I was celebrating a friend's birthday the night before. Got on the water and it was 60.5 F and there was that really cool fog over the lake so you couldn't really see very far. It was a very nice day on the water. I got 7 total fish, all over 2 pounds and the big fish of the day was 4lbs 13ozs. The little BFS lure accounted for 5 of them and 1 to a standard crawfish crankbait and 1 to a jerkbait. I found a school of fish that must have been a blue whale or Nessie because of it's size and I cast through them with everything I could get to that depth and not one taker. It certainly couldn't have been a massive crappie school or carp. Basic numbers for everyone I talked to were about the same. I was off the water pretty early, but it was getting kind of windy at 1030.

Fish of the day for me.

Clearly proof of the Loch Ness Monster in Hodges.

Proper foggy morning

I gotta get back to to Hodges again. Haven't fished it since the weekend after the opener. Awesome report! Thanks!
