Late summer is a terrible time for me to get on the water and catch some fish. Deer and duck season are coming and we try to have all the blinds and deer stands ready and food plots planted by mid September. This year is no exception. All ready mowing and clearing the wasp out of the stands and have a duck blind to build next weekend.

I got a break on Sunday and was able to go fishing for a change. Started out at Midway. Water looked good and was not as high as I had expected. 7 am until 11:30 and I caught 2 fish that were under 10". Hope it gets better as the water settles.

Left Midway and drove to a private lake that had stable water. It didn't make a big difference but I did end up with 10 decent fish.

Smallest was 10" and the biggest was 14 1/2". Funny thing to me was the bite. These fish did not hammer the jig, they just picked it up and moved slow with it. Once they got some hook in their lip, the fight was on.
Water temp was 91.2. That may have a lot to do with that "funny" bite.
