Crappiekeeper and myself took a run up in the river section this morning to get out of the wind. Picked up a few here and there but usually too small. Crappiekeeper did manage to catch this nice slab in 4 feet of water while slow trolling with a 1/4 oz. Bighead Jig and a Blk/Chart. Glitter Midsouth tube. This is always an option when jigging with these heavy heads, you can throw a minnow on them and go right into slow trolling.



We then tried the main lake but by then the wind made it to hard to fish where we wanted so we started ducking into the coves on the west end of the big bay. I picked this nice slab up while jigging the Bighead Jig in about 7 FOW in some old brush that came across the screen.

We wasted most of the morning checking out new water but caught a few with a couple nice slabs and a big cat for our efforts. We finally gave up to the heat and wind and came on in. We talked to Swamper as he was loading up. He was over here playing with his new HB 998! Also talked with Jason Westerberg and his Dad as they were loading. Bob and I enjoyed our conversation with them about their equipment and Jason gave us a few Lake Fork Lures to try.
We may not fish tomorrow and clean up our boats and fix equipment. May mold and paint some jig heads too.
