Lake Enterprise

Not being sure I would be able to arise on time to go fishing, I did not call Jackson and ask him to go fishing . After I got up and was on the way I called him at 6:30 knowing he would be up. He was up but out of town so I went solo. Four rods is usually what I take but today because of the duckweed on Enterprise a fifth rod was added, my frog rod. I started off at 7:45 with a DT-6 and caught two before the third was caught with a Ribbit. About a half hour was wasted after that trying the large patch of duckweed that could be seen from the ramp. I started working the spots away from the ramp and came upon one of Jackson’s favorites that is out in the open. Still using the DT-6, I caught three in a row but could not catch another. I believe they were schooling and the small school just moved off. At that spot I even saw a bass or two chasing bait back in the trees and pursued them but could not make them bite.  Leaving there, I tried another spot or two before going to the place where I caught 72 a year or two ago. First cast, BOOM, a fish. Second cast, BOOM a fish. Third cast, BOOM a fish but it got off the hook. As I reeled up my bait there were three other fish considering biting it. I was convinced I was going to tear them up right there, but I could not get another bite no matter how hard I tried. Another school moving around. I left and tried some other places but returned to the 72 spot. They were biting a little better and around 1:00 it was going on, not catching one every cast but they were doing better. I noticed that they would not bite when the wind was calm, it took a little ripple on the water for the bite to be good. The fish never came up and hit on top . I ended up with 24 at 2:30 and a FOD of 2-13.
