Total Fish/Sizes : About 25, 1-5 lbs
Lures Used : Senko, popping frog, Zara Spook, underspin, spinner bait
We took a chance on a rainy windy forecast which turned out perfect for topwater fishing, my favorite. Overcast most of the day with a light breeze, a few sprinkles and air temps from 65-80.
Water seemed a little low but stained and clear to about 18-24”. Water temp 68 degrees.
Started at the East Lake around 7:15 and found fish just about everywhere, mostly in or near the vegetation along the shoreline. Lots of action on our Z-man popping frogs. Caught about 20 on topwaters and about 5 on an underspin with a 4” Kitech bluegill colored swimbait, including the biggest of the day close to 5 pounds. The underspin caught 5 bass fish 50-100 feet from shore in 10-15’ water. All of the bass were very strong and healthy and obviously well fed. Only caught 2 dinks. Caught one huge crappie (quick released at the boat LOL)
The property is beautiful and fun to fish. We're looking forward to going again!

Did you fish both lakes? How is the road to the west lake with all of the recent rain? I’m going tomorrow.
