Great Murray day 3/19
Posted: Thu Mar 19, 2026 4:29 pm
Had a really good BFS day at the Murr. Final count was 24. The largest was just under 4 lbs. Most were in the 2-3 pound range, with a few dinks scattered in there. Even the short fish were pretty weighty with bellies bulging from shad.
The best part was that the first 11 bass were all on top water. I was fishing a Megabass Dog X Jr, and they were destroying it. The shad the bass were chasing were good sized too, over 3 inches.
After the top water slowed down I switched to a Megabass MrX Griffon, and continued to whack them by slow trolling through huge schools of suspended bass.
It was also great to see @Dfishin out there too. I think he had a good day as well. I saw him catch a really nice one early in the day.
It was really the first great day of fishing this year for me.
