Partner Paul and I went to T-ville in search of some "action" ....
Lake was about 4ft above pool ...
Water clarity was normal - water temps in low 80's ...
Post Cold Front - NE winds - Bluebird Skies - Cool air temps/Low Humidity ...
Partner Paul caught one nice Hybrid Striper around 2lbs - trolling small Hot-n-Tot with Pearl curly tail jig trailer - fish came on Hot-n-Tot crankbait ...
I caught several Bass on a Baby Bass Wiggle Wart ... and a couple of hand sized Green Sunfish (on same bait) ...
No Crappie were caught - we didn't fish for them for very long, since conditions did not favor them being in a biting mood.
Contrary to two weeks ago, the Shad schools we saw were of the larger sized baitfish (3-4 inch size) - we saw none of the schools of 2 inch-2.5 inch Shad that I'd seen two weeks ago. But, the constant 10-15mph winds that kept the water pretty choppy, may have kept them deeper. It also kept the White Bass & Hybrids from doing much in the way of "Jumps" - the jumps we saw were single Hybrids or Largemouth Bass.
Due to a "critical oversite", we ran out of gas :rolleyes: and had to be towed back to the ramp. Many thanks to the gentleman in the Sylvan Pontoon boat, for the tow. This unfortunate circumstance cut our fishing time down considerably ... but we were able to get in about 4hrs of actual fishing time (730AM-1130AM) before the discovery. ...............cp
