Another Day On Lay Lake Was Different But Awesome

- My favorite thing about fishing is that every day is different! You always hit the water with a plan in mind but being able to adjust and try new things at different times of the day is the key to consistent success! Spotted bass and striped bass are hard to beat! Overall I caught a big spot under the dam and a big spot down the river flipping mixed in a pile of other striper and spots! Watch, learn, and enjoy!
Can you do a video series of safe routes to approach the various dams on the Coosa river chain? Use a drone and footage similar to this video. That seems to be a overlooked area that is needed.
That's knowledge that's only EARNED, never GIVEN!
Awesome job on those bass 🔥 looks like a dope setup you got! Enjoyed watching 👍🏼
Trevor Vechinski thanks for watching man I really appreciate it!
When fishing the current if they are running 2 or more turbines. Do you trolling motor on high and go up river or do you do a controlled drift with boat facing up river and using your trolling motor to slow you down. Just trying to figure out the most efficient way to fish heavy current. Trolling motor batteries hate me lol
Alex Head I always choose to work my way up steam with the trolling motor if possible but when it’s to much I back drift!
The most efficient (and effective) way to fish current is to backtroll. I go all the way to the dam, then just drift back, keeping the motor on. Anchoring gives you the advantage of no-hassle fishing but you MUST have the right weight to bump downstream at the right speed. The most important thing is to bump bottom at the EXACT speed of the current. Depending on current, a ⅛, ³/¹⁶, or ¼ oz head with a Sassy Shad, Tiny Fluke, curly tailed grub, or tube will usually do the trick. I have some custom ³/¹⁶oz ball heads, that feature a single strand, 50lb fluoro weedguard, ultra-realistic eyes and paint, and a single wire bait keeper, (rather than a lead barb keeper that splits small plastics). I have some of the only ones in captivity!
Awesome Job enjoying watching and learning from your videos. Any advice for the fall time on Lay?
I was looking for you to nail em with the super crappie rig
Matt Krallman I’m so sorry it didn’t happen! I think I just need to roll a straight small swim bait next time!
Matt Krallman no cork style!😂
Public boat launch below dam somewhere?
Gorman Park
The original swimbait is the way to go. A pearl Sassy Shad has probably caught more Coosa River Tailrace Magnum Spotted Bass than any other single lure. A 3" Shad on a ⅛oz head. That's how I got my 7lb1oz FAT GIRL, in the tailrace below Lay Dam, on Mitchell.
I thought i was the only one to think about the cork and swimbait under the dams lol
😂😂👍
@@joeynaniafishing it should be dynamite in theory lol
I sometimes use a crappie jig and a cork for bass. It's a technique my dad taught me years ago.
How many generators were running
BAMA Bassin 2
I live on lay lake
Turtle King it’s a great place for sure!
Im thinking about coming down there in November. Where do you recommend to fish on the lake What do you recommend i throw.
Good job
