    Got to the lake at noon, ambient temperature around 49 and water surface temperature the same, cloudy, with ~10 mph east wind. Caught 3 fish in 5 minutes on the first structure I stopped at, and only 2 more for the rest of the day. All fought on hairjigs, which I never fish. Fish were in the deeper water and were in 15-17 FOW. Broke a rod tip on what was likely a catfish. Shad were everywhere and I’m still struggling to determine what are crappie on livescope. Found several brushes that I thought had crappie on them, but unsure because of no bite. I stuck to one poling trying to learn livescope. Generally I’ll spiderrig when there are so many shad that I can’t tell what’s what. I did catch my personal (known) best at 1.89. I’m sure I’ve caught one slightly bigger in the past, but didn’t have scales at the time. Fun day all in all.

      Looks like some good ones. Scent helps when the fishing is tough. Slab Sauce rocks!
