Got a wild hair up my cheeks last night and hit up the old fishing buddy Bryan to camp Mohave last night for a mini fishing trip. We got to Cottonwood around midnight and launched to the first point on the left side--hooked up on of those beautiful cottonwood channel cats and called it a night not long after--I was told the next day by the marina clerk that the opposite side was swarmed with big cats [crazy]
Woke up at 8, started dissecting coves towards AZ bay--saw lots of fingerling smallies/largemouth and bluegills swarming the shallows, so I taking queues from bass boats jigging down 30 feet from shore. Jigged up a pounder smallie, then threw on a big white swimbait that I let drop to the bottom and slow brought back--had this big old boy suck it up--he made my trip a success, thought it was a big striper when I felt him fighting!
This was the last fish of the day, wish I spent more time!
