Thanks for the report Quill.   Gotta luv that top water blow up

Quill, great to hear the topwater bite was working for you. I was out the other day by the dam throwing a frog and had great blow ups on it but no hook ups. But it sure gets the adrenaline pumping. Thanks for the information.

I think it is that time of year, and hopefully the bite will get better soon.  Lots of little shad up shallow.  Bigger shad should spawn soon.  

Fantastic report and pic's.  Was headed that way today but got weathered out early we even had a little hail this morning in Blue eye.

Top water!  My favorite!

Yes sir, it rained for a bit here this morning too.  I'm going somewhere tomorrow just can't decide where.  I'm leaning towards Beaver, might get an early shot at some top water stripers, then target smallies later in the morning.  Hate to pass on TR, but maybe next week.

 Had the morning off and just hated to get all that road slime on the boat.  I just gave it a spit bath and waxed the entire rig and nothing makes a bigger mess on a boat than road rain muck.

Sounds like fun on the Stripers have they been surfacing?  We will of course expect to hear about it.

Speaking Of top water, be on the look out for the whites, we caught a bunch of the other evening and the size of them blew me away, I’ll get some pictures when I go to clean them

Thanks for report Quill!!

I was out Monday around noon till 4 and only managed one on spinnerbait, it was 87 degrees out there Monday. Saw fish up in the back end of coves but could not get them to bite seen water temps as high as 72 degrees. Only saw 2 other boats on water Monday.

This is the first time i have been able to get on website since Sunday evening...guess i was put on vacation temporarily.

Well good to have you back, and you're not the only one to have problems.  Phil has been working with the support people to get things fixed.
