    Water Clarity: Stained (2-4 foot visibility)

    Report: Fished rom 8:00 am until 7:00 pm. Picked up 6 ish to 5 lb. Hard to establish a pattern. 3 hit on a Chartruese Ninja spinnerbait (3 tomahawk blades). 3 hit on one o my hand poured creations (2 on blue/purple, 1 on baby bass. All ish were near the bank in dead vegetation that was near semi-submerged live brush. All ish were caught beore 1:00 pm ad the bite shut down hard. There were a bunch o pre-spawn emale hawgs suspended in tree branches that were not interested in ANYTHING! I hassled another ish in the shallows or an hour and it ignored everything. Would not even be provoked into an angry reaction bite.
