I haven’t fished in over a month due to my wife being sick and in and out of the hospital. Been reading reports so we didn’t expect much action but was great to be out on the water again.
We put in just before daybreak and went to first spot to try some top water. There we picked up the only 3 bites we had for the morning. One on a Zara spook and two on a floating minnow lure. All 3 caught in the first hour or so, all we’re almost keeper size or just over. No big fish. We fished til about 10:30 but not anymore bites. Water temp in the 80s as I recall. Much better days ahead. I suspect the bass are beginning to get onto their fall pattern. I always struggle in the fall and usually go back to crappie fishing then. Lol
