Fished the Hollow Monday afternoon through Thursday fished three out of the boat 77 year old,71 year old and 70 year old we fished out of Hendricks creek Marina this was second time fishing the Hollow and had a great trip what a beautiful lake. I guess you would have to call us no count fisherman as we don't keep daily count of fish caught but I think Monday afternoon we probably caught six to eight smallmouth all 18 to 19 inches the rest of the days we caught between 10 to 18 fish mostly 17 to 19 inch small mouth a few small small mouth and about four largemouth that were in the 4lb range. We fished creeks around our area most fish were on or close to the secondary points mostly on shoal or shallow side of creek large mouths were closer to the backs of the cuts in the creeks. Saw hundred of gar didn't seem to make any difference if we had weeds or not. Our temperature was in 70's first couple days and was In 80's last two days water temperature was 67. Caught most fish on Ned rig in p&j we lost several nice fish at boat seem like they just opened there mouth and let go off bait, lost couple nice smallmouth and one big largemouth when they jumped and boy were the fish jumping and pulling hard I mean they were pulling hard it was a great fight. Water was rising had some trash and water was not very clear visibility maybe four five feet. Never saw a bed or a bloody tail. Almost perfect trip
