Well, I accepted the challenge of finding them elsewhere and luckily succeeded. Completely different end of the lake and they were bruisers. Biggest was 13.2 on the digital scale, smallest was 10.6

These are from a couple of days ago. They are starting to do their top water thing. I won't divulge exact spots, but just cruise until you see 8 boats with 5-6 people each in overalls. They have been following my boat since they crowded me at the weir. You might as well just butt in as they have no problem doing it to me or anyone else. As soon as anyone catches a hybrid, they will move to within 20 ft of you and cast lures within 3 ft of your boat. I don't think they are trying to be rude, I think it is just not considered rude in their culture? Better find them quick. The last 2 spots they did this to me at were fished out within a week, only leaving tons of whites in those areas. Pretty sure they show up 8 boats strong almost every evening because everytime I get to go back and fish, they either all show up or already on my waypoints when I get there, lol. I don't let it bother me too much anymore. Just challenges me to find them in another area of the lake and try to hide as long as I can, lol. 
Anyways,  they are definitely biting great right now. Smallest fish in the pic is 7.2 lbs. Biggest was 13.4 lbs. That is a 152qt cooler.
 
Good luck!

Correct and correct. You could also launch at Sapps and head down towards Avery

I would get cut shad, launch at Avery, up the pomme arm, and fish current seams (eddies) on the inside bends of sharp corners. We caught several slots and a 39 lber yesterday afternoon/ evening.

Biggest was 11.8 lbs
Here is the zoo from yesterday.
8 more boats showed up after I took this pic
They were landing lures within 3ft of my boat

I've seen it like that on the weir dam before. It makes it really hard when you have to pee real bad. Navery I really, really enjoy your reports. You have them dialed in!

It won't let me upload anymore. I think the file sizes are too big? Anyway, it's been a fun spring so far!

I don't like posting a lot for several reasons, but one is to not come across as bragging or be the look at me type. That being said this will probably come across wrong,  but I have been on them for at least a month now. 

Yes they are. A little too big for my 4 year old daughters, lol. They each did great on their first fish, but gave up after 5 minutes of cranking on their second ones.

Went back and found them again. Water temps dropped to 58 from the front that pushed through.
