Night Fishing

Went out with two friends for a few hours tonight. I had an awesome morning
and figured I could put them on a few fish. It had just finished raining and
the lake was calm. I was sitting in the boat waiting to shove off when I
caught my first fish, a nice chunky LM that inhaled my speedworm on the
shoreline.

I took them out to a stick/stump field and deadsticked some speedworms and
worked the jig a bit. Quickly realizing that the fish were elsewhere we
headed to fish some shoreline brush as darkness started to roll in. It
proved to be a good decision as we jit a nice flat area wher fish were
stcked up chasing baitfish. I landed my first double of the year on a double
rigged speedworm, My two partners each grabbed fish shortly after that and
my friend Tom had the nervous twitch of the night landing 6 keepers one
running between 4 and 5 pounds, all came on deadsticked speedworms in
Junebug, just an awesome night and an awesome day, we continue tomorrow at 5
a.m

Isn't 'deadsticked speedworm' sort of an oxymoron?

Cast out, let lure sink to bottom. Don't move or jiggle it. Just let it sit
there, dead in the water. Keep the rod (stick) still (dead).
