Anyone who has read one of my Bullards Bar reports knows I'm in constant search for the elusive monster spotties that are in this lake. Thank goodness we get to catch tons of their smaller cousins while we're out huntin' the big boys... Today, it was a drop shot in about 20 feet of water that was working. It seemed like the most productive spots were on the upwind side of points. I love those VMC Drop Shot hooks. Makes the rig so easy. And the Strike King Baby Z's are amazing.

Finally got my car out of the shop...again. That meant an immediate run up to my favorite lake to go big Spottie hunting. I really focused on using a drop shot in 30-45 feet of water off submerged points. The elusive monster Spottie is still lurking out there. Best one of the day for me was a 3 pounder. I really had to slow everything down. With the water and air temps dropping quickly, their bites were very subtle. Sorry, no pics this time around. I left my phone in the car.
