Water Clarity: 2-3 feet

Today I fished with two gentlemen from Kentucky who wanted to learn the lake. I’m not sure they ever thought the fish would be biting so well today, nor did I. The wind had me thinking the topwwater bite would be slower, but I guess it really made it better. There was absolutely no way we could keep count of the fish caught when doubles and triples were frequent, but it was close to 100 fish. No big fish were caught but we did have a few opportunities to do so. Most of the fish were 12 inches to up to 3 pounds. We used Zell Pops, Spooks, Yum 10” worms, buzzbaits, jerkbaits, and even rattlebaits in 4-10 feet to make this an awesome day on the lake. We will be back out there tomorrow, I wonder if they expect to catch that many fish again?

BTW- Keller’s Tackle has the new Shimano Curado in 7:1 & 5:1 gear ratio. You got to put this reel in your hands! They also got a new shipment of Falcon Cara Rods to put that Curado on.

I had a cancellation and September 11th is now available and days in October.
