Date Fished: 6/5/2010

Water Temperature: 80
Water Clarity: 2-3 feet

500am - 900am Started on topwater as normal with a Spook. One fat 16 inch fish and the another one that was just barely bigger than the spook it self. He was really aggressive as he slapped at it about 5 times before he got it. Another decent one (looked like a slot, nothing huge) came off as I was lazy and tried to swing it in the boat... this was in a main lake cove. I did not even go up any of the cuts today. Once the sun came up I went to something that is becoming my favorite... Drop shot. I could see them on the graph suspended in @ about 13-15 feet in 18 feet of water on a point inside a ditch I found. Nice one just shy of 21 inches not real fat as she was apparently still putting her weight back on after she spawned. I had about 3.5 feet below the hook to the weight. The bottom was the only one I could get to bite out there. I tried a lipless crank... nothing. I tried letting a spinnerbait sink to their depth... nothing. The only thing I did not try was a vertical jigging spoon. I even wrestled a 12-15 ft diving Norman Crank thru there and nothing. The boat traffic was really starting to pic up so I bailed out while I could.

Anyone out this evening? Just curious what the water temp got to.
