headed out to newman and got there about a quarter till 6 this morning, no luck in the lilly pads so we started searching for docs and underwater structure to the right of the public boat launch. Trolled with shad looking crank baits and caught a few fish, biggest was probably just over a pound, lots of hits but only a few small fish. then we went to the rock point and i didn't have to much luck, i tried many different things from crank baits, to buzz baits, to plastic worms. The only thing that brought a fish in was my fire tiger jointed rapala. and it caught me a lil baby bass. about 7 inches in length. want to start fishing for tigers, any advice from anybody would be greatly appreciated.

fun day. gonna do it again soon!

The tigers are pretty tough to get, at least for me, during the dog days of summer. Fish in the spring, and the fall, for the "cool water" tigers. If you are going to fish for them now, you will need to fish big baits (8+ inches) and deep. I use to hit some in Hawser in Idaho in the 18-20' range but it is slow fishing.

i figured being a warm water preditorial fish, they would always be around any structure where bait fish are and in the shallows.. but i guess i should try deeper areas.
