The summer fishing has stayed the same over the past month with no

changes except the water dropping a foot or so.The bigger fish are taking cover

and the flipping bite is next to none.Early morning is the best time for numbers

of fish on main river points and shell beds a C Rig and Rattle Trap will get plenty

of bites if you find the bait fish.After the sun gets up take out the

flipping stick and start beating the main river bank.Heavy grass mats around

fallen timber are key.A Bitters Bait and Tackle Crawdad in the Junebug Blue

color rigged on a 1 oz weight has worked best for us the past few weeks.

We should be getting another small shad hatch sometime in the next 30 days

and this will get the schooling fish going again.I am looking forward to the great

fall of the year fishing.If you remember last year in Oct we were having 40 to 70

fish days with fish to 6 or 7 pound fish on just about ever trip.

Today 7/20/2009 we were greeted with lite showers and clouds most of the

morning.The fish seemed to want a topwater for most of the morning with

about 25 fish coming boat side and Hank G had this beautiful 9 pound

Trophy hit a speed worm of a Lilly pad point
