MTL showed up and showed up BIG! Joe Bass Team Trail tournament had 35 boats and 17 limits were weighed! 3 fish were in the boat before 10 this AM with the first 2 coming on a black buzzbait. Healthy fish were up shallow on gravel banks getting ready for the spawn. Early morning, moving baits worked well with cloud cover overhead. Later in the day, slowing down with the ever deadly 5" Yamamoto Senko snagged several. On top of the 6 keepers caught, at least that many short fish were also caught. By far one of the best days on this lake in a LONG time!

Fish were tight to wood. Fished extremely slow and the bite was consistently light. You really had to watch your line as you couldnt feel most bites. No doubt the spawn will be on! The lake remains a couple feet low so be careful as many trees are now closer to the surface and will grab a prop/lower unit! -Tight lines
