A Little Night Fishing Aug. 25 Shell Knob

[merc1997 Bo]

it was almost a night of the trolling motor pattern. caught 6 keepers and 3 shorts. two spots produced two keepers each. those were hot holes for sure. the other two keepers came on two other spots. of the 6 keeps, three were lm, 1 kentucky, and two brownies. did not have any bites deeper than 20ft. best lures were senkos and beaver type baits.

did have some nice size to the keepers. shortest one was 16 inches. nothing over 3 1/2 though. tried some steep stuff, but not one bite. everyone bite we had was way out on very flat stuff.

i still say we do not have a great amount of bass in the lake. better than what it was for a long time?? sure. but, not anywhere near the amount of bass we had before the fish kill. if we did have, you would catch more than one or two off of a spot.
