I agree on most all fronts of this conversation, but I think the 11 inch rule killed us and with a bad spawn for those years as well we are seeing the results this year and last. I am 60 years old and been fishing Sardis for 40 years and never witnessed two years of this bad of fishing. I hope I have a few years left for the lake to come back, but I think we are in for another tough year next year.
