Very windy, cold day. While Prefishing found them good in brushpiles but nothing very big, tournament day they had moved and it was a very tough bite but they wanted the Berkley general on a heavy shameyhesd near the standing timber and letting the strong wind kinda just blow my shaky head through the timber. This 5.5lber took big bass and and helped us get 3rd with almost 13 limit of 5 fish, 14lbs won this HS derb

Fishing is still really tough right now, found a couple brush piles that were holding a couple fish each. Caught 1 deep cranking under schools of crappie.

Very stingy fish right now, caught one first cast deep cranking under neath the seemingly never ending schools of crappie, and then couldn’t get a bit rest of the day unless it was on a drop shot fishing slow around standing timber, lake is very low so a lot of bank structure is out of the water or to shallow to fish, caught around 7-10 fish but none were very big

Very tricky today on 12 mile. Caught one decent one first cast deep cranking but couldn’t get another bite on the crankbait the rest of the day. Dropshot around standing timber got multiple bites, all very small though.

Caught most of my fish on the flats close to a break line. They where relating to isolated standing timber on theses areas. Caught most of my fish on black/ blue/ purple jig with a June bug pit boss worked slowly.

The water was supper dingy but they would still eat the ned! I was actually targeting boat ramps, when you power load a boat there is a ton of sediment pushed back from under the ramp, therefore there is a hard bottom hump off of the ramp. Just creeping the ned rig along and our biggest fish of the tournament ate it. Staying patient is the biggest key!

Fish were kind of scattered all over the place. The best bite I could find was fishing brush piles in 8-12’. I’d have to make at least 15 casts on the shakeyhead into the same pile before one would commit.

Points
Being my 1st time at this lake I struggled in the early, early morning. Tried a dozen or so different crank baits, swim jigs & pitching stick baits along points that had submerged structure. Finally hit on the right combination with the Zman Chatterbait Elite (Black & Blue) backed with the Xzone Adrenaline Craw 4.25" (Green Pumpkin Red Flake). Did not catch the big one but landed a 1/2 dozen or so 2.5 - 3 lb. Largies within a couple hours. Best landing time was between 9:00 am - 11:00.
