Super Fluke and I hit Crystal Lake for a quick morning run Tuesday. Earlier in the summer there was a good topwater bite for the first hour of daylight, just across from the launch. You could hear 'em bustin on shad while puttin ya boat in. Needed to be their early, like 5:30 when Flowood police open the gate since that bite shut down quick (typical frog off the veg bite, then droppin a lizzard when topwater was over)

This time was totally different. Same approach didn't work. Thought they might be hunkered down with lockjaw in deeper water. Couldn't find em. Finally got on a couple of bank runners with a lizard on the other side of 55. We decided to check the little stump field in the middle of the islands and booyakasha! This hole is very shallow with fresh hyacinth and bottom growth in it. Casting a fluke very far was key to not spookin 'em.

007 and DB3, et al, Sounds like yall are havin fun. SF & I've been sittin out a while with this heat and, oh yea, we work too. As for our identity, we're just a couple of regular guys tryin to learn from the local talent (when they actually care to share a scrap of real info). Samsonite once offered to take me out on his boat in a previous post. Maybe I ought to take him up on it. Hey I know you guys are in it to win it and can't give out too much but come on, this IS under "fishing reports" . Don't get me wrong, I love the banter and tourney info, but a little hint, even if encrypted, would be nice. Surely you're not one secret away from fallin out of the rankings.

BTW I'm orinally from NOLA , Geaux Tigers! SF is from Indiana.
