Went out with a local guide and he found the fish. Spent some of the morning with live shiners, but the 2 biggest of the day came off of T-rigged Junebug Trick Worms. It was a great day of fishing.

I was fishing a 200 yard stretch of submerged hydrilla. The hot spots were where you could see pepper grass starting to top out. I made one pass with a 1/2oz swimjig and would drift back over it with the jackhammer chatterbait. When they stopped hitting the chatterbait on a straight retrieve I started ripping it through the grass and got some extra bites.

Started off today with a frog and 3rd cast it got hit and I missed. Then switched over to the swim n dinger and got a few bites but missed them as well. Then found out the pattern, wood with shade, be it docks or trees. Missed a couple and the wind got up so I made my way down Shingle Creek and the pattern was the same. Caught 10 total with the biggest at 1.96lbs. All but 2 were on wood with shade, others were from under a pontoon boat with shade and the other one was along a grass line. Water was way down, maybe 3 feet and most fish were up very shallow.

Went out today at 1 with my wife and went down into Shingle Creek to try and find her some shade. Got to fish about 40 minutes before she wanted to go, but managed to catch this one, 1.98lbs right up against a stump in probably a foot of water. He grabbed it as soon as it hit the water and made a bee line for deeper water. Got a few good bites but missed and even got a couple of bites on a Thumpin Dinger in watermelon pearl but they must have just been grabbing the tail as I didn't get a hook up. Wood and shade was the pattern again today.

Fished in my first tournament today and only got this one in the boat fishing around docks and sea walls weighting 2.63lbs . Lost one bigger when it jumped and a smaller one that I didn't get a good hook set on as it was coming at me.
