Finally set up in the mouth of a cove and found a good number of schools that were just cruising so I cruised with them. I didn't keep count of total catch but I'd say I was in that 50-60 fish caught range.

Always a bit of a head scratcher when you are confident in your starting spots and it doesn't pan out but it's fishin.

If you were on HR, it's not surprising at all that you didn't see action on brush. Brush bite tends to taper off in October there, depending on water temps and clarity. This time of year the vast majority of the fish in HR are suspended.

I don't doubt what you're saying cause I know you know the lake way better than me but my expectations of brush were set by an outing ~2 weeks ago where the brush bite was absolute fire. It all changes, every day and good for me to have to adapt on the fly.

Lotta structure in play out there with the lake this low. Be careful, fellas.
