Got out today for a very short trip with the wife. We fished the middle part of the lake. We only fished for about 1.5 hours. Caught 13 bass all but one were keepers and man were they fat. I caught most of them in 4' to 6' of water. They were staged on the edge of flats near the creek channels. Caught a 3lb LM and then a 3.25lb Spot on the very next cast. I have never done that before. Best five would have went a little over 12 lbs. Caught all the fish on plastics. They are getting ready to move up shallow. I just hope the weather settles down and TVA will not drop the bottom out of the lake again. Wish I could have stayed longer but that happens sometimes when you take the wife.
