Fished Willow by myself the morning of 7/30/21. Clam wind,no clouds and hot. The lake is down about one foot since my last trip about 3 weeks ago. Visibility 24”and the vegetation not a problem using plastics. Caught 47 bass of which 35 were under 14” and removed. The ones returned included a 5 lb, two 3 ½ lb and 2  3 lb bass.

The best results were a 4” wat/red yum dinger, wat/seed paddle tail and 4” marti gras yum dinger. A couple on a wacky worm. Picked up eight on a woolly bugger and one bream. I was expecting a lot more bream. About half the fish were relating to the shore line. About six along the dam but all small.
