After a nice start, we struggled for a bit to find some fish that would bite. We went to lunch with only 6 fish in the boat, and we only had 7 by 2:00 when I decided to move out to the main lake and fish for some staging fish. I could kick myself in the rear for not making the move a lot sooner. From 2:00 to 4:00, we boated 14 more and missed a couple more. Shaky head LFT Zig Zag, Carolina rigged LFT Zig Zags, and drop shots all caught fish in the 5-10 ft range. All but a couple of these fish were prespawn females.
It's hard to leave the spawning pockets when you are seeing 63-70 degree water temps, but we just couldn't get a consistent bite. Those fish will show up very soon, so keep your eyes open for cruisers.
