Fishing early as usual and caught 2 this morning 2.68 and 1.36. They have let the lake down about 6 or 7 feet and you can walk around the lake next to the water. This lets us cover a lot of water easier. If your new to fishing this is great. Pack smart and you can cover a lot of water in the fall. Cooler temps help the fish to feed shallower also. It’s been a couple of tough hot months so I’m glad. Spinner baits and top water like buzz baits are good to use. I also throw a chatter bait all lures I try and match the hatch too. Good luck!

Found lots of shad in the cove behind Hong Kong Island but no hook-ups. The cove by the Hong Kong pump house was loaded with shad as well. Caught 2 LM and 1 SM bass by pulling a DT -6 under schools of shad. The cove in Stewart creek where the ski course is was loaded with shad and bass. Caught 20+ LM bass and 50+ white bass( mostly on a silver spoon). Just could not find the big ones today!
