Water temp: 71<br />Clarity: 3-5ft<br /><br />Been out 4 of last 5 days w/ mixed results. The bite is at a stand still right now. The water temp hasn&#39;t fell in 3 weeks and that along with turnover in most of the creeks have things a bit tough.<br /><br />My best bite has been early using white 1/4 oz Assassinator buzzbait and jerkbaits on steep/vertical mainlake banks. After the first hour I&#39;m using jig heads and drop shots rigged w/ Big Bite Shacking Squirrels in Hologram and Kriets Magic. I&#39;ve also caught a few fish using the drop shot fly (sexy shad) tipped with Hologram this week. I&#39;ve also caught a few on jerkbaits in the middle of the day bright sunny clay banks in less than 5ft of water . As always during turnover there are some fish super shallow and some super deep. We&#39;ve caught fish from topwater-60ft deep this week.<br /><br />Here&#39;s a few pics from the last few days including a photo Joe Thomas sent me of this giant Caribu he killed in Newfoundland. He says &quot;Looks like this will be the new archery record Woodland Caribu. Green Net score is 364, which if correct, would beat the previous record (1966) by 20 inches!&quot;<br /><br />Here&#39;s my last available days in October if interested in working on fall techniques or chase a trophy Spot, drop me a line and lets do it. 20th, 23-25th, 28, 29, 31st.<br /><br />LB<br />
