Fishing Notes |
---|
Today I got on the water about 9:00 with a lot of confidence and a plan to run to lower end of the lake. There was good wind, however, after fishing for 4 hours around the 1-2mm I did not have a single bite. I was mostly working windy points and secondary points as well as looking for bait fish in the backs of some big coves. It seemed that my graph was virtually blank the entire morning. The water by the dam was very clear, for some reason I could not get a fish to bite. I then moved to the 13mm and threw the buzz bait along some banks that had the right chop and a bit of shade, I had a few blow ups and caught one small Kentucky keeper. Then I moved to some condo docks and worked with my Humminbird 360 imaging to locate brush piles around the docks. My most consistent bite of the day came on brush piles in 15′-25′ of water on the 10″ worm. |
