Bass fishing is good right now on "The Hill". The spawn is done and the herring spawn and shad spawn are going good. Capitalize on the early morning bites around shoals for the herring bite and backs of pockets with grass for the shad bite. Throw a 3 bladed spinnerbait or a chrome topwater of your choice. You will have to weed through the Striped Bass and Hybrids, but they'll give you a fight.

The lake has a number of patterns running, but tournament winning bags are being achieved chasing the herring over some other techniques. The fish are beginning their transitions off. There is a good morning bite on points. Up river the fish seem to be a little farther along in their transition then south.

Some big bass still getting ready to spawn. Biggest was 5 lb.

We targeted main lake points to catch a LOT of fish. Unfortunately, we never got the big bite we needed. As long as there was a slight breeze going, we could get bit easily. Day was mostly overcast and 2-5 mph winds.
