Total Fish/Sizes : Very good number / up to 5 lb
Lures Used : Various SP

Fish a sunny warm Monday afternoon at Rock Chimney.  The lake is couple of feet below the overflow but appears to have come up a foot or so recently.  Lite winds produced a good ripple then faded in the late afternoon to glassy calm water.  Visibility was 6 to 18”.  

Tried a number of lures & colors around the lake with minimal success on hard lures, but found a pattern with soft plastics that held for a several hours before slowing in the late afternoon.  Also had some success with frogs after the wind died.  Almost all were 2 to 4+lb with no dinks, so the fast action was great fun!

Mr. Stanley stopped by to say hello as usual with a friendly word and good wishes. Thanks to him and the club for making this fine opportunity available to us!.
