Laydowns

Fished the northern part of the lake out of Dayton focusing on points and shallow coves in the creeks. Nothing on the points but found some smaller bass in the lay downs in the backs of small shallow coves. As the water temp heated up a bit and the sun got higher we worked the wacky a little deeper focusing on stumps in 3-5 ft of water and deeper lay downs near the points in 5-7 feet of water. Our bigger fish came off the stumps and the deeper lay down with the largest being 3.1 lbs. Nothing huge but fishing was a bit slow and the wind was making it difficult to fish anything on the more open water.

Fish are moving off of the beds and pulling tight to the closest hard cover. Any wood cover I pitched to near spawning areas had a fish on it. Shad spawns in the mornings make for a fun bite also!
