top water up or down ????

Down for me to. I've got about a two week window on Cumberland in the spring at almost an exact same time that happens every year. It's as faithful you could almost set your calendar and watch by it. This year I caught a few and even a few decent ones, but it did not happen this year anything like normal, it was way off. This pattern has held true around these same few weeks for me for about 6 or seven years in a row. This year was way off. In fact I personally think the fishing in general this year is way off.

I fished topwater at Stoner yesterday and only had one blowup on the frog. He was about a pound and a half and he came off not long after I hooked him. I agree with everyone else. It has been SLOW. This spring I done horrible compared to years past on topwater baits. All my fish were deep.

It could be the rainy, cool spring and early summer we have had and the lower water temps.

Before i went too NC i was killing the bass on top water at Nolin.We was waiting too see a jump.When we fished the 2day champinship for ABA my non boated caught both his fish on top and the big fish was 4.55.
