This report is going to be short�my face kind of hurts right now, due to a pulled tooth yesterday.

Short story�
Fished over 28-29 feet of water�west of the Bass Islands.
They caught their limits, (I reeled mine in too), using Bandits, and Flicker Minnow 11s, behind Off Shore boards.
Dipsies with spoons�at a speed of 2.2-2.4mph (On the FishHawk)..

Zero setting at 30 and 35 back �
Two setting at 45-50 back�
Three setting at 47�
SOG was similar to the FishHawk, going from west to east.

Red Headed WB, or just a red and white one, with a black dot �was our best spoon�(Scorpions)

�Barbie� Bandit� 70 back was hot�as was the �Purple Glass Perch� Flicker Minnow11 at 120 back. We doubled up on those colors, and leads, and we were done by 9:15.

Nothing really big�a 22 or 23 incher, is the biggest caught this morning�.the rest were 16-20� fish�.just good eaters.

This lake is going to be some insane fun, in about five years. I�m glad to see all the smaller fish surviving, and getting fatter�

Same crew tomorrow�

Stay tuned�
