After having fun last night I kept thinking- I'm 5 min from the boat landing.
So I got up at 5:30, had some coffee and headed out the door.
Sunrise was perfect!

First few were Pnuts

Caught two 18"ers so we are having fish for dinner!

11 fish in the boat - lost a few in the thick stuff - Caught them all on top water before 9am!
Tried a jerk bait for a little with no luck.

I think I may have seen you out there yesterday evening. I was the only flats boat on the lake. Was that you?

Great catch!

Barry, we need to "hook up" one morning. You're 5 minutes away...I'm 5 football fields away :thumbup:

We were down there the other morning catching the smaller bass by dragging Ribbit Frogs across the pads...fun to watch them little boogers explode through the pads :thumbup: We only managed a few small bream on crickets....

captkeyser- That was me! or at least I saw you go by.
Did you fish or were you just looking at the lake?

dolphinatic- Lets do it- I'll call you next time I'm going out.
I got an Idea on those Bream!

Its just too easy to fish for a couple of hours and then drive home.

Did a little of both. Only caught two bass, both were small. YOu are exactly right, it is far too easy to drop in and fish for a few hours after work, and what a beautiful lake.

It's a great lake whether you're just running the boat trails, fishing, or hunting. I'll be out there for early Teal and have been checking it randomly. Are they hitting a certain topwater or pretty much anything you're throwing?
