Dale

53 is the temp mid lake, stained, but a couple of ft. of visibility, lake is slowly rising every day, with level still well below summer pool.
I fished w/livebait an put one nice heavy fish in the boat an several smaller fish, with only
a couple hours of fishing time available. The condidtions with cloud mist at water level I missed a golden oppertunity by getting such a late start.

I have not found a particular structure that I can get one fish after another, but I do stay close to deep water. I try to find a channel bank either coming close to the bank, sometimes grass is nearby sometimes just rock

That is one hefty smallie. Almost has a largemouth-ish body.

Rick I'm not sure what I'm more jealous of...the fact that you get to fish Dale quite frequently or the minnow fishing setup you have....I really like the way your boats set up for it
