dam Report 4/13

[vacation]

ok, here's a quick report again. Keep in mind I fish three to four days a week because my boat sits in front of my home on a slip, so I have the advantage of getting out often. Saturday there was an ok wiggle wart bite and a very strong 5" kalin smoke grub on 1/4 oz jig head just throwing it on secondary windy points. Keep boat 1 1/2 casts away from shore and toss, count to five and reel slow. If bait comes straight up at boat you are doing it right. Fish just bite and tug slowly and load up and you just lift rod and reel in. I tie grubs on to novices all the time and they are catching fish. I prefer to power fish and the wart bite is strong. Find wind, find fish. That's old school bill babler advice and it's great advice! Today I fished 4to6 and caught 9 keepers and 7 shorts. All in Jakes creek area on points leading to spawning pocket. I caught the worlds most beautiful smallie tonight and took her to my dock to get a better pic and released her. Look how amazing she looks, we are so blessed to enjoy these type of fish!
