Big M area 7/23

With a forecast for cooler weather I decided to make the trek to Table Rock.  Had a location tip from rps, and the fish were where he found them last time he was out.  They were all deep, 20-30 FOW, not a lot of them on the finder, but enough to fish for.  I caught most of them on a c-rig UV Speed craw with a couple of drop shot fish and one on top.  Put 8 in the boat before they just stopped biting about 0830.  I spent too much time messing around with baits trying different stuff, if I had stuck to the UV Craw I'm pretty sure I would've boated a few more.  You just don't get much time to fish before they shut down and the rec traffic starts going, I was off the water at 1030.

Must've have been some kind of Master Craft get together today, had a pack of 8 of them come by me, talk about wakes, holy cow, thought I would get seasick.

Surface temp was 85.

This sorry looking bass was my biggest.

I had that same look on my face when I had the flu and didn't make it home in time.

From now on if they look like that we will just take your word for it. No pics needed.

Quill, those 8 master craft boats just wanted to get a closer look at your Phoenix. They were jealous.
