Quick report

[5bites]

We had a short day today and literally started getting fish with an hour to go but I was just glad to put some of the puzzle together.

Ran to the dam first thing with topwater on the brain and no love. Dragged and cranked some points and again it wasn't happening. A couple lost fish or bites was it. Finally ran down more toward mutton creek and caught/lost a few fish pitching bushes but it was veeeery scattered and slow.

Finally out came the big worm on piles in 20ish feet deep and whammo. There they were. I left biting fish to show my friend another good pile and one pass through produced a solid fish. Then off to load up. It stinks to just get things going and leave but I was just glad to get on something before I left with my tail between my legs.

Sorry for such a quick short report. Hopefully it does someone some good. It felt good to be on Jims water today. I thought about him quit a bit.

It was nice meeting Ketchup and the others at the ramp this morning. A good surprise. I didn't catch the others names. Hope you guys had a good day.

Your day sounds a lot like ours, worm bite was the ticket for sure we just got on it late also. I think their were many fisherman thinking of Jim today glad I got to share his water also. Nice to meet you this morning always nice to put a face to a name.

Good to meet you also 5. I did the same as you. Ran to the dam area. Started with Ned. Caught a few short smallies and big drum. Deep crank on points. Spinner bait in brush. Nothing.

With an hour left, made it back to the Ruark area and hit points with a C-Rig worm and started catching fish. Lost 2 good fish. Lesson learned

Yes lots of thoughts of Jim today.

Threw 2 Rods and a small bag in my truck drove to stockton picks my boat up from mutton creek. Had carrier and water pump installed along with talon brackets. Forgot to take a graph with me. Kept boat in bushes all afternoon Had 2 from mutton creek to Hartley

Never considered deep. great job figuring them out fellers Can't say I saw many bass boats at all?

I ran some death rigs and had LM Bass hitting them instead of walleye. I was using 3 inch gulp. Two of them would have kept, I turned them both back. Caught them on Friday.
