Slow day overall. Water is at or below winter levels already. Did have some luck with KVD perfect plastics and also spinner baits around boat docks. Working everything slow.

Fish were holding on deeper dock in the 15 feet range and it had to be slow and suttle by the dock pilings to get bit it was slow but rewarding.

They were generating a little current and the fish were on rock up the river ambushing baitfish and the spinner bait was getting bit.

We caught fishing doing a little bit of everything Monday. We started up river in the morning throwing a frog on the main channel with a few blows up. Went down river and starting fishing docks with grass around them near the main channel and started seeing hundreds of bass between 1-3lbs. Caught one between 3-4lbs and my buddy did as well. We decided to go all the way back into the back of spring creek, we caught fish on a fluke skipping under docks and then we finished out deep on the ledges where some of the big girls are still hanging out. This fish came off a DT 20. Silver and black back, forgot the color name fishing a ditch like we all do on the ledges. Fish the down current side of these ditches and creek channels that drop off into the main channel. All of them are shells beds.

I fished the casting for cancer tournament last Saturday at Neely and finished 2nd. I had zero practice before hand and happen to get a lucky bite flipping an ultra vibe speed craw on a half out tungsten weight 3/0 Ewg. Zero current in the morning but the ticket was flipping the outside edge of the grass or slightly in 3-6 inches and working your bait out. At 11am weiss kicked their generators on and at 12 Neely turned theirs on. It was a slow bite but it we ended up with 17lbs. All of our fish but one came from flipping. The other was a crank bait. Splatter back in a channel bend. All of our bigger large mouth came within 2 miles of city docks boat ramp. Put your head down and flip like crazy.

Catching fish on everything right now. We fished an hourly big fish tournament and all 8 fish for 8 hours came on different lures and techniques. Finding the grass that hasn’t been sprayed was key for me!

It’s hot out there 🔥🔥 with 90+ degree water fishing has been tougher than usual at lake Eufaula however, fishing around brush piles in 10-20 foot of water has produced some good fish. Also try using the OG slim around bridges and rip raff early in the morning or late after and I’ll nearly guarantee a good bite. Pad crasher frogs around Lilly pads and thick vegetation will also most definitely get you bit around early morning and late afternoons. During the day try throwing a spinner bait around lay down or fishing it deep around brush piles in 10-20 foot of and as always a 7.5” worm on swing banks near that are close to the channels will definitely get you bit! Good luck and tight lines!! 🤙🤙

I found a ton of fish but the lack of current made the outing a typical Tennessee river experience. Without current the Tennessee river is fame or famine but I was able to catch a 3 lbs largemouth early and later in the day I caught four smallmouth and five spotted bass. My biggest player of the day was definitely the drop shot.

Fished a Saturday night tournament on the home pond and we finished 4th. One key lure that I couldn't tag above is the 1/2 oz Wrecker Baits Pro Jam Elite flipping jig in black and blue with the Strike King Rage Chunk. We caught a ton of fish on jigs, jerkbaits, and top water. All the fish we weighed in came on the jigs.

Super fun outing on the home pond! Honestly, just trying different finesse techniques and learning something new. All of the lures listed caught multiple fish for me. Today, they were schooling from one end of the bridge to the other chasing minnows, shad, my bait, you name it. A couple ideas to try with the Berkley flat worm is wacky rigging it and neko rigging the bait. I found quite a bit of success using both methods. What can I say the Hog Farmers Spunk Shad just flat catches fish.

I was able to find fish sitting on ledges in between 15-20 ft on ledges and bluff walls. The shad are all over the place and the bass are sitting and waiting to feed. I also threw a 1/2 oz Wrecker Baits Tarantula flipping jig around brush. Today they just seemed to want the trick worm. I caught some stripes on the DT 16 as they were feeding.

Had a blast practicing for upcoming tourney. Found around grass on Texas rigged mag II zoom worms mega bass spinner baits did the job as well. If you watch Jason Christie’s videos on FF minnow “it catches everything” he’s not lying I caught large mouth around grass, smallies on ledges. I saw something strangely big on live scope casted at it and it was on stripping drag jumping the whole 9 ended up being an over 4’ long nose gar not exactly what I was after but me and the kid had a blast with it. If you don’t have any FF minnows rest assure Omnia does get them before I buy all the stick up and keep for myself.
