We fished Forbes Lake the temperature of the air was 71° and the water temperature 81° with 1 foot visibility and a slight chop on the water. We fished the morning with reaction baits and had no bites or fish. After lunch we switched to finesse baits using a Lews speed rod and a 2000 spinning reel with 15 pound power pro super slick to 10 pound vanish leader the other outfit was a skeet Reese fast 7 foot fast action rod with the 15 pound power pro super slick to 10 pound floro leader with a Berkeley 6 inch show worm. This was rigged wacky style for both of these baits. We had to fish within 3 feet of the bank, if we got further away we got no bites or fish.

A #2 Neko hook with a shad neo bait my partner fished with a shakey head rigged wacky style on power pro super slick 2 to 8 lb fluoro.
