Boat is in the shop so headed out to back seat it for the day. We spent about 6 hours on the water. Throwing a keitech 3.8 in bluegill flash on a basstrix 3/8oz underspin got my first fish in the boat. Came off an isolated rock pile in about 10' of water. The rest of my fish for the day came on fishing gravel patches and points outside/near spawning flats in 2-12' of water with most bites coming in 3-8' on a Carolina rig with a Hayabusa WRM 956 3/0 and a Zman Hula Stikz in GP. Conditions throughout the day were fluid. i.e. mixed clouds, sunny slight breeze with up to 1' chop on the lake maybe more in some areas.Definitely a key was the rod I used. A custom made ALX Powerbolt. The powerbolt seems overpowered on paper but is perfect for c-rigs. It is sensitive, long to aid in hooksets and loads up well into the blank to keep the fish pinned with that heavy weight flopping around as well as from keeping the traditionally lighter wire carolina rig hooks from bending out. A real uniqe rod for sure. A non-custom Powerbolt would work as well.

Fished the BBT tournament, weighed in 19.60, caught fish all day down south. Shaky head and drop shot did all the damage. Went back out Sunday for a couple hours and got a couple 4 pounders.

Fished for 5 days in the crazy 25 MPH winds everyday. Fishing was tough but got 3rd in the Wednesday Nighter with just over 13#'s for 3 fish. Got fish on frogs and shaky heads in the evenings and pretty much threw the Magdraft in the mornings up north. Targeted docks and seawalls. Big fish 7.2#'s
