Thanks smljaw,I've always fished the cover and not really baitfish.Also I've never fished that far up on herrington.....maybe that would turn my luck around on that dang lake..I've never done well there but know people that have,so I know they are there.Just a matter of finding them pesky specks...lol Ya'll have a MERRY CHRISTMAS and a HAPPY NEW YEAR..hopefully the weather will be better and the fishing......
