4/2 & 4/3 Lower end

[Bassin4fun]

So I was out Saturday and Sunday morning. I pulled up Saturday just as it stopped raining. It was about 715am or so. As I was launching, I saw several waves of bass boats go by....I had forgotten about the BFL tourney. I started out the morning fishing on gravel runout points in an arm off the main lake. I was throwing red craw Rock Crawler, red craw squarebill, a chatterbait,  and a jerkbait. I even tossed out a topwater spook a bit. I got bit on the squarebill in about 6-8ft of water by a good size smallie. I continued fishing the secondary points and ended up landing a spot before calling it a day. I only fished until about 1045am.

Sunday morning, I was on the water by 645am and made it to Long Creek before it got swamped with BFL contestants. The bite started early. I caught my first fish after about 30 minutes. I again focused on points. The jerkbait bite was working for me and I was throwing a Megabas Vision 110+. I also caught some on red craw Rock Crawler.  After hitting a 90-120 minute stretch without a bite...I decided to head it in. I don't think there were many spots back in Long Creek arm that had not already been fished multiple times before I could get to them. It seemed quite a few guys from BFL and several locals were back in that area where I was fishing.I ended up with 6 in the boat and 2 keepers...off the lake by 11:15am.

Thanks for the report, and congrats on some nice fish.

Nice fish when the lake had a lot of fishing pressure. I recently purchased one of those Ketch measuring boards, built like a tank! Tight lines
