Bill,

I need to give you your credit for the fish we caught.

I told my partner that I read you had success with crankbaits.

We quickly had figured out that if there wasn't hydrilla there were no bites.

So I would throw my crankbait 360 degrees in about 10 feet of water and when i hit some solid hydrilla, we would fish that area and catch a few.

Of course a couple of times I would catch a fish coming out of the hydrilla on the crankbait.

Two years ago when I was there in March there were Lily Pads.

I did not see them last year or this year.

Do the lily pads come back later in the year ?

Tom. Thanks for the “credit”. The lily pads did come back last year.
