Darn Cold Front !

Went up and put in at Crab Tree Saturday afternoon. Gorgeous day for sure....blue skies...little wind...no crowds....oh yeah, cold front came through. Didn't take us long to figure out the effect it was having on bass fishing. Went up towards State Park and fished points on north side and some bluff banks. Threw jigs as usual (its an addiction) and managed 2-3 dinks. Worked our way back towards the quarry with very little success then went to my "go to" spot near the dam and salvaged our dignity. Funny thing though...they didn't want a big bait. No to the jigs..worms..cranks...but hello to a more subtle presentation as in shaky head/ 8 inch wacky worm and 4 inch tube Texas rigged. Colors were varied (didn't seem to matter)...watermelon green...watermelon red....peanut butter. They were all over it til around 10 pm then lights out. We did.manage 15 fish with 2 keeps (barely). As a side note....where is everybody on a gorgeous full moon night ? Saw not one boat from sunset to leaving the lake. Anyway.....wasn't a washed out trip given the conditions and it can only get better.....Fall is here !!! Be safe.
