Guys, Sorry about the lack of reports. Just been so busy fishing and spending time with christmas related stuff that I havent' had the time to report or post much.
Water temp is 50 degrees as of Wednesday. Water level is 21ft low and fairly steady and water clarity is pretty good for the most part. Not perfectly clear by good.
Fishing is outstanding. Now that the water levels are steady it seems to be concentrating the fish more. I'm doing well on dropshot, spoons, cranks and jerkbaits (take your pick). Numbers are fantastic. Wednesdays trip resulted in 30+ fish in less than 5 hrs. All Spots except for one lone hybrid and one largemouth. The best quality is coming on the jerkbaits and the cranks both worked around rock type structures. Also the sonar bite is doing very well and I am starting to see some very heavy concentrations of fish on that front as well. This past Wednesday we had a 4lb largemouth and 2 3lb spots in my boat and had quite a few 2lbers in the mix. ;D. So quality is pretty decent both shallow and deep. Most of my fish have been suspended so it's been a tricky bite. My bigger dropshot fish have been in the 40ft + range but most of the fish you catch shallow on the dropshot have been on the small side so concentrate suspended and/or deep.
here are some eye candy sonar pics for ya to give you an idea of fish concentrations.
