    After spending the morning hunting offshore for a legendary lunker Bullard's Bar spotty....no luck there...I headed back in for an afternoon of working the shoreline with a trusty 5" Yamamoto Senko on a Texas Rig. I was cherry picking points and ledges, and also spent some time in a couple coves that offered some tree cover. I would post up about 20 feet off shore, and cast right to about 2 feet deep. Then a slow , twitchy retrieve would do the trick. It was another epic day out on my favorite lake!

    Finally! Got my car back....so I could pull my trailer...and my first stop was Bullards Bar....has to be my favorite lake in my area. So many options available! I went up chasing one of the legendary giant Spotties that lurk in these deep waters. Throwing large swim baits and deep diving crank baits out on the main body of the lake. When that didn't get any results, I headed up the main fork and had a blast all afternoon throwing a Texas Rig setup with Strike King 5" Ocho on a VMC wide gap hook. I was having best results on the up river side of point, and some success near laydowns tucked away in all the small coves that are everywhere. I'll get one of those lunkers about there some day....

    Overall, a tough bite. Lots of 11 and 12 inchers caught except for one 6 pounder.
