St Jacobs Dam

[JordanMcK]

Does anybody on here ever fish the St Jacobs dam anymore?.. I've seen some old posts about the St Jacobs dam being a decent fishery.. I fished it today for close to 2hrs, and I only had one hit; had the fish on fighting for a couple minutes (was something monstrous; hit my firetiger lipless lure like a hammer, and started peeling line like crazy), but didn't have my drag set properly and lost it! (figures.. I have fallen victim of losing fish to not properly setting my drag quite a few times now!). I saw a couple people fishing there with worms on the bottom, but they weren't catching anything either.

Any info on where to fish in this area would be great.

I have also heard that the Macton bridge, Glan Allan, and other areas in St Jacobs can be quite productive as well.

Ive fished the st jacobs dam a couple times with minimal success. One time I had my fly rod there, I was catching creek chub like crazy, but couldnt get anything better to bite.
