Windy day at Tonka made it tough to stay still. Couldn't get much bite other than chatterbait in bluegill colors and shad colors. Had to stick to the proven drop shot with a heavier weight (1/2oz+) which always catches fish regardless of weather. Casting weedlines 10-15ft deep. The VMC Redline Series Neko Hook #1 size is a game changer! Before my hook-up ratios were poor. VMC neko hooks for drop shot is a must! Sharp, top of mouth, and had to use pliers to get them out most of the time because the hook secures itself in the roof of the mouth very well.

All of my fish were caught on the outside edge of flats in about 10’ of water. Spent some time looking for bed but never saw any with fish on them.
