Catching fish vertical jigging in the summer is no different than in the fall/winter. I took my buddy Gene out this week and went out early as it’s very hot and water temps were 88-90. Hardest part, as usual, was finding the darn fish. I idled around various structures looking on my HB Side Imaging and finally found them on secondary points not too far from their main lake points. Then I looped back, put the HB in jigging mode and it was game on.
We caught over 20 fish, 8 different specie in one location alone. Mostly Spots, but also LMB, SMB, one Hybrid, one Crappie, one Walleye, one Catfish and a couple big Bluegill. Fish were caught in 25’ to 55’ of water using 5 different types of jigging spoons. Gene wanted a few pics to show his boys so here they are. We left at 10:00 as the heat was around 90 by then. Fun day!
