I went fishing with Jerry Kropff on Grand Lake in northeaster Oklahoma while up visiting family for the holidays. On the way there the truck said 12 degrees, but it did warm up to the high 30's later in the day. Jerry was very kind to have the bait already caught and ready to go fishing when I got there.
Jerry spent some time graphing a few locations and finally decided an area with a steep drop off into a channel looked good. It wasn't long and we had the first fish....then we missed about 14 bites in a row. We tried rigging the shad different ways and downsizing hooks, but still had trouble. The bite was just not aggressive the day of the cold front. We fished a total of 3 spots and caught 26 blues, most in the 4-8 pound range. I did catch a 16 pounder to end the day. It was great fishing with Jerry and learning from one of the greatest catfisherman. I look forward to the next adventure. Thanks Jerry
