Winter fishing has been tough lately and I finally got a few a week ago. Used corn to catch carp for bait. Couldn't get any really small carp but still managed to catch some greedy flatties eating big baits. This fish was caught in the original River channel in 60fow. I'm in an associationso I'm allowed to tag flatheads in certain lakes. I tagged and released all the flatheads I caught this trip!

      Well at least bait is doing good with all the inflow of water. Weird how the flats weren't biting. Was the water muddy? And how deep were the bluegill?

      Use corn and fish on a sandy beach. There is tons of debris on the water so be careful @wesm45

      Fish on the old river channel so go up river far enough to find that depth.

      @wesm45 the water level has change like crazy in the past couple weeks so it either shut them down or is making the prespawn happen. Can't really tell. I would ...more fish 20-35ft and go semi up river
