Glad to see that you found some fish. That's what it's all about. Having some sport and fun out on the lake.

And when you do finally figure out a new lake or an old lake there is a feeling of satisfaction that no other sport can provide except maybe hunting.
Thanks Moveon...........Im looking forward to getting back out there later this week. With more rain in the forcast that should help keep some color in the water and the surface temps cooler. As of yesterday it was 82.4 according to my dial. Most of the other boats that I saw were casting soft baits slow...............the Husky Jerk proved to be the thing for me though. One thing I do want to add, bass were busting the shad balls throughout the morning hours and we tried topwater baits over and over with only two strikes..........that kinda surprised me.
