Jug Fishing on Long Lake (5-31-10)

Jug fishing is redneck sport at its finest! These jugs were rigged with #12 Eagle Claw circle hooks on 4 ft drop lines baited with 3-4" live bream and anchored with bricks. Long Lake is an oxbow off the Ouachita River. It is located west of Hwy-167 between Hampton, AR, and the river.

I agree, plus I like to use two poles, one for casting the other for bait, but not allowed inner lakes in MN, just on the Mississippi river.
