Member Darryl Stratton and I headed to Oklahoma to cure our bass fishing fever, but the fever only got partially cured.  Thought it would be a good day; forecast called for 70 degrees with 5-10 mph winds, and an approaching cold front.  But the fish just were not interested.  We caught a bunch of little ones (10 inches) and harvested 20 fish.  We had 13 over 14" (most barely over), with the largest being 4.49 that Darryl caught early on a clear Yellow Magic.  That fish, like most of the fish for the day, hit that topwater so lightly that it didn't even make a splash (how is that possible??).  But that was the story for the day - very light hits.  The wind was calm at sunrise, but rather than 5-10 it rapidly increased to 20-25 during the day.  Even fishing out of my boat, the wind made for a tough day.

The lake was full, temps ranged from 51-55 degrees, and water clarity was 5-6 feet.  We tried different sizes, lures, colors, shapes, but the only real producer was a white spinner bait.  We caught 90% of the fish on that.

Not your average day on Indian Hollow, but still a good time and great to get out on a 70 degree day.
