Started at first light, caught two keepers in the first hour or so. Caught a bunch of short fish. Didn't catch as many as I usually do, but I was just pitching a jig all day. I needed a day of just using the jig to get my confidence back up on it. I will say this, you would have thought it was Labor Day with the number of pontoons on the water. I guess it was the dickboaters last hurrah. After they shook off the hangover at noon, it was mostly unfishable out there. I almost wish it was a little colder and a little rainy, that usually makes for a good day of fishing without getting knocked around by the wake machines.
BTW, used a Paca Craw all day, water temps still in the high 60's to mid 70's. Water was stained quite a bit, maybe the lake is starting to turn, or was till this high pressure front sat down on top of us. I can't tell.
I was at nolin last weekend,had trolling motor issues sat. But managed to catch 13 bass with a couple of nice spots in the mix. Was pretty slow for as stable as the weather had been all week. I also noticed the water was stained so maybe the lake was starting to turn over but with water temps in the low 70's that seems a little early but i dont know much about lake turnover anyway. It was a beautiful weekend to be on the water and yes all those last minute boaters where out jetsking,tubing and crusing. Jc
