Report is for Friday, 07/28/2023. Temp was warm in the low 80's, with a good storm coming through about 5pm. Temps dropped down to mid 70's after storm. Had some action on jigs near docks, but after the storm they really started chewing a frog and absolutely crushed it! Key seemed to be near pad edges and isolated pads. They were sharking it and absolutely coming out of of the water. Only fished a couple of hours after getting dinner during the storm at Birch's. Great Dinner spot on the lake.
