8/1/15 - Taunton River Prefishing

This the location for the BASS Nation TOC this year. I have never been, nevermind even thought of this place for a fishing location. Regardless I'm always up for a challenge.My buddy John and I put in a 13 hours (5am-6pm). Access & parking is limited. Water clarity is terrible, stained brown. The tidal effect is dramatic, fluctuates a good 5ft anyway, and the current rips pretty good at times. It was an extremely tough day, half way through we had nothing to show for it. After throwing many different baits, I changed to a Black Boag Hog Baits Brush Jig/Chigger Craw combo. Finally that helps us to start to figure it out as a nice fat 4-1/2lber pounded my jig! John would finish the day with a handful of 1-3/4lbers-2lbers. I would also pick up a 2lb 13oz, and another 2lber before we headed off. All fish showed signs of eating well, bellies on all of them.

  • Since I now live in Taunton I've been meaning to check it out. I assume you put in much farther downriver, but I know folks fish it up this way. I've heard good things.

    Anyway, good luck during the tournament! =)
