Been a while since I got to Bridgeport. Started out looking for crappie and caught a few. Started paralleling the bank with a little Spro crankbait and caught 20 bass in about 2 hours. 4 keepers. Mix of all 3 blacks. Biggest one was a 6.04 Largemouth all caught in 4 ft of water. it was a fun day. Water Temp 51-54.  

Also while going down the bank I saw a familiar looking hat that I lost about 7 months ago.  So I grabbed it, and sure enough it was my hat that I got of Temu so I know it was mine lol.  Lake if very low, be careful going up from Bridgeport and in Flat creek, lots of trees to avoid

good day for you. We were up near Shell Knob, we caught modest number all spots.

Nice, fat, and healthy bass!

It really was a perfect example of a Largemouth. I've only caught 2 on Table Rock over 6 and the other one was short and stubby, I think it was a really old fish 6.62

I am like you. In 17 years living on the lake, I only caught 2 bass over 6. One was off the flat at Stubblefield Branch on a Top Dollar, somewhere around 2015. The other was my second largest ever. The Rapala spring scale (before digitals became common) said 8+. That one was in 2003 and came from the trees on the bluff side of where the Kings River enters the lake.
