7/30/2017 slow bass fishing

[MOBass]

Arrived at the Branson Campground ramp about 8:30A to see the last park space fill up.  Bailed to Cooper Creek, 4 or 5 rigs there.  Fished the creek below Branson Landing, spooked a nice fish off the corner of a shallow dock and that was the extent of the action.  Ran to Rockaway and had one fish chase a jig out as I was winding in to cast again.  Finally hit a gnarly tree with a picnic bench under water below Rockaway and lost a nice largemouth to slack line and a pulled hook on a Senko, same area caught one small largemouth.  Back to the creek below Branson for one more fish on the Senko skipped under a dock.

No love on spinnerbait, worm, jig, plopper.  Lots of boat traffic, trout guys, kayaks, canoes, kids camp, the new jet boat tour. Thankfully no Craigcats and no one being overtly stupid.
