Water has just been drawn down 8-10' in High Rock for maintenance. Made it difficult to navigate up river, so spent the majority of my time in and below Second Creek. Shallower depths made for colder temps in the morning, as low as 49 degrees in the back of coves, but also made it awesome for mapping points, channels, culverts, rocks and stumps for normal water levels. Found many large bait balls, but bass were fairly docile (or maybe just for me). My only luck came fishing in 5-10' of water along Rip Rap near bridges on a small Chatterbait. Otherwise, a lot of bumps on football jigs and drop shot without any real bites. Water will be down through December so I encourage anyone who can to go out and map some waypoints!

Morning started very slow. No topwater action and no bites. Started fishing docks and laydowns with a jig and started catching them
