Man what a day and not a good one. Started away from the ramp at safe light with the crazy notion that I might be able to figure something out to help game plan for CFF#3 and stared the morning off shallow in the stumps in chester frost and struck out, ran up river to the plant and struck out, fished more stumps and rock around Harrison bay and struck out, went into wolftever to get out of the wind and struck out, went and worked some creeks south of Harrison bay and struck out, emoBang emoBang emoBang finally strapped the bass rods down and pulled out the crappie stuff and caught a couple of nice slabs late in the day off of shallow rock. Any way back to the ever elusive bass. We fished a foot of water, we fished 15ft of water, we fished points, flats, rocks, humps, sand, gravel, wood, and any other kind of bottom you can find anywhere we found bait we fished. We threw traps, cranks, swimbaits, spinner baits, chatter baits, jerkbaits, shakeys, tx rig, Carolina rig, bama rig in just about every color that is made. We fished where the wind was blowing into, we fished where it was blowing out of, we fished banks the wind was parallel to, we found quite protected pockets and creeks. Only managed 2 LM and only one was barely 15in. I must not be holding my mouth right or something cause I seem to only be able to boat 1 keeper in a days fishing lately. Either that or I need to call an exorcist and have em take the bad juju off my boat. Water temps were low to mid 60's partly cloudy with the wind pushing things around. Thought it was going to be a good day but that's fishing.
