| Fishing Notes |
|---|
Today was another pre-tournament practice day. While I caught some fish in 4 hours, I was not able to hook up with any big keepers, just a couple of 16″ keepers. Today I mostly worked brush piles, tried some secondary points leading to the backs of creek channels and did a lot of running and not fishing, searching the backs of coves for the large gizzard shad and signs of bass hitting these schools. I also tried many different baits today to see if the fish were wanting a bait moving or on the bottom. While, I did not catch enough fish to draw any specific conclusions, most fish came with the bait moving/swimming, only one bite dragging the bottom, which is different from the past couple of days when the quality fish seemed to be shallow and eating soft plastics on the bottom. Tomorrow, I fish with one of Lake of the Ozarks best bass fisherman, Marcus Sykora as we both prepare for the weekend tournament. |
