Hit the water around 7 am this morning (sorry FV, I would have gladly invited you but I didn't find out I was going until very late last night) and fished around HB. The water looked to be down maybe 4-5 inches. Threw a SB (chart/colorado) for about three hours and boated 5 LM, three keepers and two slicks. The largest was 15.75" with the other two just over 15". Two of the three keepers were caught in water less than 2 feet deep but not on a defined shoreline. Water temp was around 77 F until noon when it began to warm some. I piddled around in some coves and then motored back into WT a bit and caught one 14" LM on a TR. No more trolling motor problems so it seems the circuit breaker did the trick, although my battery did run low sooner on me today that it ever has before. Kinda bummed me out cause I wanted to fish some more. It was a gorgeous day to be on the water. emoThumbsup

Good job man. We need to go out again soon. I will be out of town most of the week but afterwards we can start hitting those fall schoolies.

Good report SJ. Nice pix of the fish too. Yep, always something to spend money on.
