Fish, your a better man than me for sure.   By looking at a lake map there seems to be several locations to fish on Bull Shoals.

The MLF guys have really  done me a favor.  Every Tom, Dick and Harry right now is dragging his skag on the bottom trying to coax 1.5 pounders out of heavy bushes.  We'll just set out and catch them where they live and not get hung up every 3 minutes.

When I pulled over on 19 Jeff said, "wasn't there are guy just fishing this?"  I said, "Not really."

you are right bill.  most of the time, you just have to wait for them to get out of the way and then pull in catch them where they were sitting, not where they were fishing, so to speak.

Bill, thanks for the report. Have you been seeing any shoreline related shad spawn. It was good in a few places on Thursday and Friday morning.

[Bill Babler]

No I have not.  Most has been on commercial and big docks.  Not what I'm looking for with guide clients.   There was a Gizzard spawn early on the bank, but thats long gone.

[Bill Babler]

Exactly Bo.  As you know most folks sit inside where I fish.  And, thats a good thing.  I  always giggle when folks ask me about a fin bite.  I know you have some and  I'm for sure  Champ and Dock have some, but to tell the truth, there are very few fishermen that have any perfect fins. Tim Hughes I'm sure has some, Buster, Sainato , Robbie Dotson,and a few of the old timers, Collier and i bet Tindle, Kelley Powers, Rick Holmgren, Brian Ward and Dan Langly. maybe Mike Sauters.  Tindle probably sold his.

mike sowders and i have not one clue what you are talking about fin fishing.  and i am sure that rick holmden, bill watson, and dan langley know anything about them either.

Do you ever use the big ones I have good times with them on stripers fewer bad ones with the larger sizes

What does a perfect tuned RedFin look like in the water?  I have one jointed one that i played around with and it kinda slithers through the water like a snake, and makes a decent little wake

 

A buddy got that new Berkeley wake bait that is suppose to be a RedFin immitations and he caught one to my six when i was throwing a Sexy dawg behind him

I think it’s kinda like Fight Club. I’m not sure anyone is keen to share a video of a perfect Redfin.
