Idle around creek channel bends and main lake points in 20’-30’. The most productive brush today was on the main lake points. I could not get the fish in the creek channel bends to fire. Maybe if I would have had minnows that would have been a different story. I was predominately bass fishing today, but I can’t resist throwing into a pile that’s loaded with crappie. I only threw my 1/16 oz. hand tied hair jigs in grey/red/chartreuse and white/silver Krystal flash. I had to bump the branches of the pile and hold it as still as I could once I bumped it to get bit. Just keep moving until you find active fish on the piles.

Started the morning out right fishing the same points that I had success with yesterday throwing a 90 whopper plopper paralleling the shore lines working my way back into the back of the creek. They bit consistently until the sun broke the horizon and the shad went deep.
