Fish were schooling on secondary points feeding on bluebacks. Also had some luck up shallow off of main lake pockets with a buzzbait early in the morning.

Lake Hartwell is currently very low. I have not seen it. This slow in several years. Could only get small spots to hit on top water, even though I could find suspended fish everywhere. I was just unable to find anything that they would bite. All 3 that were caught today were small.
