Only day I could make it out was the day the wind was 25-45.  I knew that going in so dispurse with the complaints.  Tried the small pond by the road upon arrival and could not get bit.  Usually this is my go to at Tear Drop but not happening this trip.  Hit the middle lake and got a couple fish.  The only way I could get a bite was to keep a spinnerbait slow rolled.  The surface was so disturbed by the wind that had to slow it down.  Got a bite right off and missed it.  Got a 1 pounder soon after.  Had to let them eat the bait and they seemed to hold on if I reeled through the strike.  Got these on the side with the pier and then went to side with the creek.  Got one on the point and then had a Chatterbait bite on other point that I missed.  So 3 landed out of 5 with two just under 3 & ½ lbs in a bit over 5 hours.  Moss coming in on the 2 lakes so this limited the Senko approach along with the high winds.
