The lake is still down. The water temp is around 70. Saw some Shad in shallow but couldn’t get bit. Bellows Gill 3.8 with Hayabusa WRM959 EWG hook and Deep Crankbait worked well on deeper water. Hayabusa TBL930 treble hook helped to land this big fish on a crankbait! Ok

Shad
Lake level is 5ft+ low, with good visibility 1-2ft, water temps ranging from 79-82 degrees. Fish are scattered with some moving into the first 2/3 of the coves and main lake pockets. Bank fish can be caught using shallow diving crankbaits and topwaters in the 2-6ft range. Most unders are being caught offshore on main lake points in 10-12ft. Drop shots over cover has been working best. The larger slot fish are scattered as well with some being caught deep cranking on points and the dam in 15-20ft of water.
