Caught a few short fish! Around 10:00 A.M. this morning we were in the back of pocket pitching a jig, and a Texas rig around some laydowns, and fallen brush piles!! My fishing partner caught a 19 1/2" smallmouth! On a rage craw! So we started looking at every pocket we went by to see if there were any fallen trees and graphed around to see what was in the pockets. We put 5 fish in the boat for a total weight of 17.47 lbs.
