Only got 2 today, 3.37lbs and 1.52lbs. Had a small one jump and spit the hook right beside the boat and missed a few. Water is now high enough to get out, but it looks like they have sprayed the reeds and weeds recently, bunch of dead weeds floating and along the shore. Bites were coming just as you exited the weeds into cleaner water. The 2 that got in the boat were on the Gambler worms, one on each color and the small one hit a Yum Dinger in Mardi Gras.

These were caught on the Dinger Green Pumpkin with Blue flake 5 inch. I also got one over 3lbs and 2 over 2lbs.

Was finally able to get out on Fish lake today, barely got through the canal leading from the ramp in a flat bottom boat, it's very shallow 2 feet. Unable to get to the area where I wanted to fish, so we fished along the weeds in the main lake 6 feet of water throwing up towards the shore. I 8 total, 6 on the Gambler and 2 on Yum. Biggest was 4.69lbs pictured, had 2 over 3lbs and 2 over 2lbs and only 1 under a pound. Missed a bunch as well and had a couple get off.

Started off in the first cove on the left with the Gambler Burner in Gold Rush and got 3, 2.66lbs and 2 pound and a half or so. Missed a couple and had one pull drag the whole time and got off, never saw it but guess it to be 6+lbs. Moved over to the other cove and got more, 3.74lbs, pictured, and 2.44lbs, both on the Zoom Craw worm. Missed one and had one break my line.

Only had a couple hours to fish, so back to Fish Lake again today. Started in the second cove throwing the Gambler worm around the reeds, lily pads and docks and caught 3, one dink and the others over 2lbs., including the biggest at 2.54lbs pictured. Missed a few but the bites were harder than yesterday. Quickly realized that wood was the pattern today as every bite was next to a tree, under a dock or very close to a dock. Missed the first one as I came into the cove up close to the trees on the left, then got a couple before I got past the second dock on the left, nothing the rest of the way in until I got all the way to the back and was throwing up under or right at the edge of the wooden docks along the back edge of the cove. Missed a bunch and lost the burner worm so I switched to a Strike King Ocho worm in watermelon and red flake. Missed a few more but got plenty of bites as long as I was close to wood. Went around the cove and then went over to the other cove and fished it quickly as I only had about 45 minutes before I had to go. Caught 2, one dink and the other was 2.44lbs. Again wood was the key and I got them on the Strike King Ocho worm.
