    Expected fish on beds but did not find them. 15mph wind with gusts to 30 kept things interesting and hard to fish main lake points. Caught one good one off a letdown in the back of a windy cove.

    Hey guys as of last week in the tournament tour I’m in. We locating fish with a red rattle trap, sinco green pumpkin, white spinnerbait, and red square bill crank baits. The males were starting to move up shallow on flats up next to submerge bushes. Water temp was up 50s.
