I started fishing a little before 10 It didn’t take long before I caught the first fish which was an enormous relief because of the scolding on the previous two trips there. A second one followed quickly also good. They were on a shallow top, or actually a branch. One on a Booyah and the other on a Shaky head on that same branch. I worked around to another shallow spot with a whole tree on the bank and some of the top was in the water. Caught 2 there on a Booyah and one nearby on a DT6. I circled the hole keying on shallow wood and managed to catch a few more. There is a standing tree out in the middle in 13 feet of water that’s been there since at least the 1960’s. The water level has to be extremely low for it to peek out. It is not in shallow water but I had to give it a few casts and caught one on a DT6. On the second time around the hole things changed a little. The fish were on a little deeper wood and I even saw some out in the open chasing shad and was able to catch one of those. There were only 4 more bites than the 11 fish I caught, so they were biting to eat. Had problems with shaky heads hanging up around all the cover. I finally ditched the shaky head and put on a rugby head, much more weedless. I quit at 2 with 11 fish and a 2 1/2 FOD. Did I say the wind was blowing? About 20 MPH and the boat was doing DOSEY DOEs all afternoon.
