Fishing was good early in the day. Everything caught today was on Chartreuse spinnerbaits. 4 fish total all 2+ lbs. Water is still up and down. Good bit of luck casting into deeper water and letting bait sink to bottom and working back up. Almost every hit today was from doing this.

Best day of the year so far. Several stripped bass and large mouths. Most were on spinner baits but also on rattle traps and swim bait. Letting the bait drop all the way to the bottom and working back up. Most were in 10-12 of water.

Slow crawling a jig across the bottom produced a couple bigger spotted bass bites while green pumpkin lizards Texas rigged and green pumpkin worms on a shaky head caught lots of smaller spotted bass.
