Chum in Green River

Post by uavitaliy1 » Thu Nov 21, 2013 1:25 pm

Can you guys give me any recommendations on whether to use the regular corkie and yarn setup? Or should I use bait, like shrimp or Prawns? Or just jigs? Also, if the water level is high and dirty, does that have any effect on the fishing? Please let me know your recommendations. Thanks

The river is in bad shape now, its high and murky. It needs to drop a bit. I use pink/purple jigs tipped with shrimp under a bobber.

It will drop into shape by tomorrow. Bobber, jig and prawn meat. Pink, 1/4 oz about a foot and a half off the bottom. If it's super high, the fish hug the banks and are moving fast to the top. If it's flooded, it can be tough, best to plunk.
