Got a late start and hit the water at 8:00. Air 52, water 50, cloudy all day. Light winds. There are a lot of shad in the water and all you had to do was watch the birds eating them. There were trout chasing them around too and I got a few hits off of a white 1/16 roostertail thrown to the balls but couldn't land any.

Only bass was a nice healthy fat 3 pound female (little over 15 inches) that when it hit I thought it was a fingerling from last season's hatch till I set the hook. Off the water at 3:30 with only 1 fish landed. I didn't see any other fish landed today, I think there is too much bait swimming around. Should be a great spawn though.

Tight lines,
