Well Hamilton kicked my butt. Fished 3 days in a row, several coves loaded with docks and quite a few structure spots with no fish that I could see on them. Picked up a few nice Bluegill, but only got one Crappie and several dink Bass. I know post spawn can be tough, but it was disappointing as I had anticipated this trip for a few weeks and didn't take any fillets with me to cook.

Talked to one of the local "better known" guides at the bait shop and he said he only caught one while prospecting and was headed out to fish for hybrid Bass. Maybe I should have done the same. I know there are tons of large Crappie in that lake, but I couldnt find them. Lots of Bass boats roaming the banks and never saw one catch anything. Maybe early July will be better when I get to go there again.
