Chilly morning temps warmed up nicely to upper 60’s with bluebird skies and gentle breezes making for a beautiful day to be out fishing with my buddy Mark.  Lake was down about 2 feet which made for very little shallow shelf before the steep drop offs to 30+ feet of water.  Water was stained with about 2’ of viz and stayed at 62 degrees all day.  We fished from just after sunrise to around 4pm and boated 40+ bass.  Caught lots of small ones shallow or on deep cranks, but the larger fish 2lbs and up came from deeper water on free rig, or 1/2oz Tx rig.  Found tons of bait balls on the electronics and tons of bass around them, but mostly hanging in 20-25’ range and could not seem to give them anything they wanted.  Didn’t see very much surface or busting activity at all outside of a few dramatic jumps in the early morning. Also tried half a dozen other techniques not mentioned without any success. Another great time fishing Blue Rock.  Thanks to PWF and Eric for the awesome property!
