      Report: Time o day dictates what size leader, and what depth I throw the Drop-shot. The ish are up shallow and active in the morning, so I'll throw it shallow (2-5 eet) until the sun hits the water. When the sun hits the water, my approach changes and I'll throw it on deeper structure (points and drop-os) that lead into deep water. Keep your leader long enough to where your bait will be above the weeds, even i you have to go 3 eet or more. Hope this helps...Andy

      Tips: Throwing rogs, buzzbaits, spinnerbaits, and crankbaits have never produced or me out there in the backlakes. That doesnt mean that they won't work, but stick to plastics, and change colors and baits until you ind out whats workin.

Doug, i you go east rom the bridge on the North side o the lake you were ishing, just keep on walking the south side o that levee that separates the back lakes rom the ront, youll run into Island pond...its the eastern most lake out there in the back. Bassin boys...you guys are ull o crap, and i know that rom the past...I challenge you two to a little tourny there in the back lakes. I can bring a riend, or I'll just do it alone, cause i know that I don't need anyone else to kick your sorry butts.
