I was unable to give my usual report since 8/19. However my partner and friend fished from 6-8 on 8/22 . They in the south weed in the large lake They caught 30 yes 30 fish. They used primitarly spinnerbaits war eagle , bsb. Lunkerlure. This just illustrates that this time of the year if you can find the fish they are not hard to catch.
