    Everyone has different spots, and when you find one it will be a good spot for years. Some of the best will come from about 1/2 way into a creek and then all the way to the back.

    A pebble or small rock bank that gradually slopes into the water, also it helps to have stumps and logs with it, fish any kind of the bank where it cuts in.
    I have been catching fish with a blk/chart jig a foot or less under a bobber, some hit it right on the rocks while others 4 or 5 ft off the bank.
    Just keep on moving until you find them, good luck.

    Tebo arm has been doing well this week, the Grand is starting to get good (according to my spies!)

    Don't be hesitant to work some shallow water and if you don't find them back off into 8 to 10 foot of water and fish a bit deeper.

    Tebo was slow this morning but it should speed back up in the next few days.
