    I was thinking about going Monday but this cold that everyone else has is starting to set in on me this afternoon. I have sat here and slowly gotten more tired by the hour and my chest is starting to get heavier... I can feel it coming so my Monday may have just gotten shot. I think 1/2 my clients I meet with this week had it along with my 3 of my friends and wife, it was only a matter of time I guess.
    It's not duck season so I have to do something... :D

    Try and find any brush on the south shore of the lake at various depths not only on the points but between points. If you can mark some pods of shad on your graph try and hang some jigs around and in where you are marking shad. If the shad are close to and around any brush work around the brush and then tight into the brush. The brush you work doesn't have to be very large.
    Notice you'll be having a north easterly breez at 13 mph tomorrow. Tabular Weather Forecast for 38.53N 95.62W

    Thats my two cents worth and most others are more familiar with Melvern than I.

    Good luck

    Well said LBM. If you follow LBM's advise I don't see why you wouldn't find some fish. I would add that I have found most of my fish at 15' to 21' and have had good luck on red and white tubes. Good luck!

    Dang sorry to hear that I was getting the itch to get back down to Hillsdale and see if I could get any crappie unlocked and removed from there.
