Lots Of Water 4/30

[9LB]

I wont bore with you my struggles, lets just say nothing went as planned BUT I got out of Roark around 4:15 pm. No worms and no trolling motor. The water is high and dingy. I was getting temps around 57-59. I went to some favorite fishig holes and threw my Flickr Shad. Ended up with 8 fish in about 2.5 hours. 4 decent kentucky's, 2 VERY small smallies,1 white and a nice keeper walleye 22" An interesting point I told a buddy to pick up a few Flickr Shads and instaed he bought the New Storm Version of the same lure. It was outfished 8 to 1 in the exact same size, color and set up, the fish he caught was a drum. I had a pretty frustrating start but it was nice to just feel the sun while casting the stick. It really seemed like it is ready to bust loose. I am not sure what this cold weather will do later in the week. If you keep a fishing journal do not look at what you were catching last year at this time. The ramp was very busy for a Tuesday night. An of you Bassers ever fish the Redfin ? I seem to hear about it a lot on The Rock.
