South and north of Shelvin Rock.

This water is low so working ones way down and back is a pretty decent work out.

It was a gorgeous day ! 

Started at 8am out by 5:30 or so.

It seemed like every piece of cover had a goggle eye under it, I caught at least 10 this picture is of the largest. They really liked the green pumpkin hula stick.

Ended up boating two quality small mouth one had to be 3.5lbs my ruler said 18.5 inches, the other was 14.5".

I also hooked a big carp that broke me off after a wonderful run.

There are deer and turkey everywhere, I even saw a spoon bill in one small area, it looked like it was 5ft long.

Anyway great for me, I'm probably done for a while, time to be responsible again.

Great trip Dan! Glad to see you getting out on the water more than in the past.

I have always had good success with green pumpkin or olive with rock and ozark bass (aka goggle eyes). Those are my go to colors for them.
