Dale Hollow

We fished dale yesterday. Had 20 fish on swim baits and jerk baits. The smallmouth was hammering the jerk bait!! Fished around midlake area. We found a lot of fish up pretty shallow already in around 12 ft on pea gravel banks and points. Most of the jerk bait fish come on black chunk rock banks close to a spawning area

Thanks for the report. How was you working the jerkbait? Also where the browns good quality fish. After the big kill a few years back I've heard reports of the quality & quantity coming back around. Hope I can get my kiddo tied in to a good one later this week. He hooked into a 3.5lb last summer wading in a stream and about had a heart attack.

Here's to a fun trip.
