What’s Happening on the Lake

I have had some AWESOME Father/Son, Father/Daughter, and family trips this week. I so enjoy entertaining the kids – we always have a blast! We experienced another nice resurgence in the topwater bite this week, which was nice to see. We found some good schooling activity in the mornings last week around main lake points, and that continued this week as well. Aside from the morning schooling bite, the afternoon has been best for the topwater bite. Points and humps over brush in 25 feet of water or so.  A chug bug and smaller walking baits seem to get it done best. The drop shot bite has also been good this past week. Fruity worms do rule!  Humps and points in the 30 foot range have been the best for us on the drop shot. The Spybait bite has been on and off for us, but some days it is the thing to be using.  If you see the fish suspended up in the water column but not hitting the topwater, the spybait should be the ticket.  I am also starting to run some live bait trips – we have been able to find the spottails at times, and we are also having success with the large minnows from Hammonds as well.
