Only one for the day. Nailed. Fluke just off the bank in about 2ft of water. Bass are chasing bait fish. Hard to get them to target a bait when there are so many bait fish for them to eat.

This was from the west fork of drake's creek on Old Hickory. Have to crank fast through structure to get them to bite. Found that slower 6.x reel didn't work quite as well. Had to step up to the 7.1.1 for them to take notice and crank it hard and fast. Thinking I might go to the faster 8.1.1 speed to see if they like that even better. I feel like they are reaction biting and not to eat at all. Water is dropping in temperature for sure, but the lack of rain still persists. Not much else to report, just happy temps outside are still in the mid to upper 60's.
