It is fun messing with them little buggers,they have a heart for fight like a Marlin!Wind did become an issue around 9:00 a.m. when the sun started warming up.Finally chased me off the main lake and into Six Pound Creek.Wife caught the biggest bream of the day there in about a foot of water.Check your p.m.:cool:

Yea, it/s fun to mess around with those bream,especially on a fly rod. They have a lot of pull-age for fish of their size.
Haven't checked any lake stats to compare number of Shell Cracker citations but there is a good population of citation Shell Crackers that come out of their LCR . You might want to check it out and make a trip up. Here's one that a friend caught last Friday.
