August trip on the St. Francis River26 Aug
I took about two dozen Black Swans out to the St. Francis river bar pit earlier in August. We fished from 6:00 am to about 9:30 am using shrimp and minnows for bait. We wound up keeping 11 catfish, 2 big crappie and 1 bass.
I’ve fished with yoyos numerous times in my life, but they just don’t compare to the Black Swans. Black Swans are so easy to set out, keep baited and pick up that it is just awesome — and the fish catching is unbelievable!
The premium circle hooks work great and I can’t recommend them enough. Since I’ve started using them, I haven’t lost a single fish once they were hooked.
