Roaches Run fishing - May 1, 2016



We started fishing at 3pm and fished until 6pm. No other boats were out on the lake. Weather was kind of nice and started drizzling and cold. High tide was 4pm. Fish stopped biting for half an hour. We lost 2 big fish in the lily pads area. One took our crank bait with it. It was on a 6 pounds line - too weak for the snakeheads in the lily pads area. The Rebel crawfish crank bait was the killer for both Saturday and Sunday. Crawfish lure wobble nicely between lily pads at high tide (the water cover most of the lily pads). It attracts fish from beneath with and without the lily pads. We used 12 pounds line to get the bait out of the tangle from lily pads - a must in heavy cover and at Roaches Run for Big mama snakeheads. Yesterday we caught a 27 inches big mama snakehead. Tons of eggs when we severed her neck. We prevented between 40K and 100K eggs from hatching. The big mama was caught on the Rebel crawfish lure as well.
