    Report: Fished Collins both days this weekend. Tried topwater in coves and main lake points early Sat. nothing. Moved over and lipped a jig and topwater around the boat slips, again, zip. Moved out to main lake humps and ound some ish busting shad. started out throwing a Kastmaster and Flukes. Nothing on the Flukes, my partner inally caught one on the Kastmaster. When it spit up a couple o shad I realized the Flukes were probably too big. The shad they were chasing were only 1"-2" long. I switched to a blue/silver 1/4oz. Rat-L-trap and still nothing. My partner nailed a second ish on the Kastmaster. I igured what the heck, and dug out a 4" Senko and rigged it weightless on a 1/0 hook. Started catching a ew by casting to the boils and letting the Senko all on a semi-tite line. By Days end we put 5 spots up to 1 1/2lbs in the boat and I lost a 2-21/2 right at the boat.Sunday we started out ishing spinnerbaits and ripbaits on main lake points. My Dad hooked one on the ripbait and lost it 5' rom the boat. I landed a 1 1/2lb largemouth on a 1/4oz. white spinnerbait. Tried dragging plastics on a couple points with no takers. Again moved out to the hump and started throwin Senkos and shad colored swimbaits at the boils. Caught 3 more spots to 1 1/4lbs. Overall it's a still a pretty tough bite on Collins still. But the pending coldronts should help.

    Tips: I had several bites on 4" and 6" worms in between shad boils while still on the humps. Throw shad colored plastics to the boils and let them all. Seems like they hit em within 4 or 5 seconds. I they don't take it by then, reel in and get ready or the next one.

    Report: Fished Friday and Saturday. Fishing was pretty Good on Friday and not as good on Saturday. Most all my ish came onSpinnerbaits or Crankbaits. On Friday there was a little top water bite in the evening, and on Saturday morning there was some Jerk bait action. All ish caught were Spotted bass. All ish ound within a ew eet o the bank. On Saturday Aternoon we were sight ishing out on the point covered with trees and were looking at some good 6lb. ish but could not get them to bite. Tried everything in the box and the only thing they paid attention to was a 7 1/2" AC Plug. Good luck, Good Fishing!
