How is the fishing after all the rain?

We started at daylight working topwater then progressed to worms,swimbaits, carolina rigs, shallow to deep crankbaits all through the water column with little to now success. Two small bass and a small walleye were all we caught today. Not much of a showing for the amount of effort extended. Don't know what I was doing wrong but would sure appreciate just a little direction if you feel like sharing. Thank you

Haven't been bass fishing for a while, but we've been catching a bunch of bass crappie fishing brush piles in 10 to 20ft of water. could easily catch a limit or two if you were actually targeting them.

Lots of shad schools swirling around right now.  Have talked to a few crappie fishermen and they are catching some good fish, having to work a little for them, but much as jwilson48 said, brushpiles in the 10-20 fow.  As I have aged, (not particularly well I might add) I discover that I have a lot less tolerance for heat than I used to, so I will wait for fall.

Thank you will be down this weekend to see if we can exercise a few. Wish I had an umbrella on the boat for some shade. lol

How was the weekend Hillbilly?  As stated, brush piles are key, as well as the often overlooked humps that many forget about on Pomme. Those humps are a key to finding and catching quality fish at this time of year.
