Fishing the back side of Paradise Island up in the reeds and submerged vegetation caught 2 today. Tough day, not many bites and the fish weren't where I thought that they would be. Tried many places and different lures and colors of worms and only got bites on watermelon red and watermelon pearl.

Only got 2, one eary just off the ramp while waiting for the guys to show up, 2.19lbs pictured. Missed a couple there and got broke off as well. We then went across the lake to the dock with the red roof and worked to the right and I got the other one, small right about a pound. Missed a few but saw plenty on the scope. Went back into the cove with the tiny houses and worked down the left side without any luck. Got all the way in the back and started seeing some beds, not many fish on them, and missed a couple and got broke off again.

Fished a Florida BASS Nation Kayak Series event. Caught most of my fish on wacky junebug 6” Senko under docks. Did catch 2 around grass and lily pads. Had to switch to a weightless Texas rig as I broke off all of my wacky hooks. Wind picked up and was harder to skip with the waves.

SHALLOW! Some of the places that the elites fished 1 or 2 days before we couldn’t get into. If you come off plane you will suck to the bottom outside the channels. Water is being drained from the lake at an alarming rate. BE CAREFUL! Fish are moving to secondary and third level spots, deep channels and canals with hard bottom near are the spots to hit right now.

Started out across the lake from Grills, the dock with the red roof and to the right in about 7 to 10 feet of water figuring that the cold front had pushed the fish back to the first drop off. Guessed right as the first 5 cast got 3 fish in the boat, missed one and had one cast with no bites. Caught a total of 8 today up to 3.14lbs., pictured. 6 of the 8 came on the Speed Senko, with the other 2 on the General. Had one fish jump and throw the hook and I missed a bunch. All in all a good day.

Fished in a tournament, started out fishing where I thought they should have been, shallow spawning along sea walls, docks and reeds, but no luck with only a few bites. Went down into Shingle Creek and got this one, 3.14lbs. in the boat and lost 3 others. I used a Rapala Crush City Mayor in Black and Blue flake, Yum Swim n Dinger in Watermelon Pearl, and what had the best results a Willow Vibe jig head with the Rapala Mooch minnow.

Went out of Lakefront Park to the left and fished around the reeds on the lake side and got a couple, then moved inside the reeds and got 3 more, 1.43lbs smallest to 2.39lbs pictured. Fish seemed to be on the beds, didn't see any or evidence of that, but the bite would be taken and moved. I missed about 20 and threw into the same area as many as 7 times before hooking up. Texas rigged the Mayor on a weighted ewg hook.
