are available in Greenfield across the street from the convenience store at hwy 160 and H highway, its the old dollar general location that is now a hardware store and has a really good selection of fishing tackle to include flicker shads.  Went yesterday.  Winds were a bit stronger than forecast.  The cold front had definitely put them out a bit,  instead of 16 fow I found them at 20-22.  They like shiners.  Have been catching them just off the bottom but those fish were kinda lockjawed,  every once in a while I would spot a solitary fish at about 15 ft,  lift the jig up to that level and they would quickly oblige (thank you Livescope). Caught 6 nice keepers and 3 dinks and one rubber fish.  No white bass but seen several schools come thru, some large ones trailed by smaller ones,  me thinks they had luv on their simple little minds.  It was chilly out there but semi productive.  Had one boat come by twice  and another in a far cove,  really quite peaceful.  

   Last time I cleaned fish at the cabin I left the carcasses  in the red  5 gal bucket for Ricky Raccoon, he always cleans them up.  This time  I left the tuffy (fat head) minnows in the bucket too.  Guess what the scavenger wouldn't eat!  Just saying.

You must have heard that first Turkey gobble!😆
