Reported by
David Lawson

Chickamauga Lake (TN)

Swinging for the bigs! Tons of fish coming off of grass lines with the Hog Farmer umbrella rigs! Paired with the largo shad they just can’t resist it! A medium retrieve speed in around 6ft-8ft range is the deal! Caught 30 one day and 20 the next with the biggest being a little over 7lb! It’s cold but it’s time for GIANTS on Chickamauga!

Reported by
Omnia Fishing

Pickwick Lake (AL)

Omnia Fishing reported catching Largemouth Bass using the Umbrella Rigs technique and Daiwa Tatula 200 Casting Reel - EOL on Pickwick Lake. Additional comments from this report: "Largemouth chasing shad on rip rap and bridge pilings. Fish are roaming and mostly keyed in on the bait around the structure. A flashy umbrella rig and underpin is a good way to cover water and find feeding fish. The flashier umbrella rig, the better. "
