- On the water at 7:30 am, 51’ and a very cool breeze.
- Ended up becoming a beautiful day with way to much sun shine and somewhat windy.
- Lake Level down 3 to 4 ft and water clarity 36”.
- Typically I would start off fishing the shore line around the lake based on present conditions. However; to my surprise there was no activity at all. I had tried a wide variety of colors both Tx. Rig and Wacky.
- I’m assuming due to the lower lake level the typical grass lines are not developed and creating unusual conditions for this lake.
- Reset and start over! Start fishing the next thermal layer and change to heavier weights, which changed everything.
- One of my favorite things about this lake is all the timber and structure, however; due to the lake level this changed everything.
- Ultimately I ended up spot fishing around the lake based more on the thermal layer than anything else.
