Report: fishing was tough. Threw Carolina rigs, drop shot, and cranks. Was bit once on a drop shot. Tough lake to fish due to weed problem EVERYWHERE. Beautiful scenery though.

Tips: Fish slow-nothing on reaction bites

Water Teamp: ? Water Clarity: 3
Report: Fished hard off the bank for 4 hours and picked up 2 spots and missed one fish. First fish was just under 2 pounds and the second one was close to 6 pounds and 22" long. Both were caught on a carolina rig and a 7" plastic worm. I did have a crazy blowup on a 7" swimbait but she missed the hooks.

Tips: Fish deep and slow on the deep side of the weedline.
