Second visit to this wonderful property and just as great as the first. 

Fished from 7:30 to 3:30, wind was on and off and for the first 3h it was overcast. 

Within the 5m of arriving at this property, I caught a 5lb’r with a popper lure off the bank next to the pier. From here on I was pretty hyped on how the rest of the day would go. Tried the popper along with other top water I had in my bag but no luck. I switched to a swimbait and while it took be a bit to find some bass, I was able to get on some on the SB all close to shore nearing the shallower side of the lake near the dam. Most clinging close to weeds.

The majority of my catches were on the paddletail with the occasional bass hitting a t-rigged stickbait. Caught one on a deep crank in the deeper end. 

Overall a fun day at a great property. Will definitely have to make more visits to blackjack!
