Went to Lake Chicot Saturday morning breaking my “no public lakes on the weekend “rule. Had some tips but they were weeks old. The lake was down a good bit. Caught a tight eye in the first place on a red eye shad getting rid of the threat of a skunk. I tried brush around some docks on the shallow side but most was not deep enough. Tried a Booyah some shallow cypress trees with 2 feet of water around them and caught one quickly but no more and the trees ran out. Moved to a place they used to school up years ago along a slick bank with a couple of brush piles. Couldn’t get any interest with a small red eye but saw some bass activity. Changed to a Booyah and caught three going down a slick bank, largest 2 1/2. Checked on the squirrel log and it was gone but saw a couple of rock piles and marked them for deeper times. Wanted to go to the deep side but lots of boats visiting the docks there. Water in Chicot was beautiful and was full of threadfin shad. I will go back on a weekday but maybe to the north end.
