Got up really early this morning to try and beat the heat a little. Launched from CFP about 5:45, first tlr in the parking lot, imagine that. emoScratch I ran up to the nuke plant to see if I could catch anything on top or if the white bass were doing there thing there. Caught 2 med. whites on tiny fluke, and 4 spots. Tried a couple of crappie spots and picked up a few keeper fish. It was a great time to be out on the water, but fishing was a little slow. I headed back down river and tried a dropshot rig for some bass. Caught 2 more spots and can see some potential in this rig. First time trying it. <br /><br />Headed over to WT bridge to check on the crappie there. Marked lots of fish, but bite was very slow. Now I know that DK and BassERT had been there before me and gave them all sore mouths. By the time I ran into DK and Pat it was starting to get hot (10:30) and after they left I decided to try one more stop for crappie on a deep dock. Picked up 5 keepers there on a 14 count with 1/32 jig and BG Shad. Ended day with 13 crappie, 6 sm-med spots and 2 med white bass. All fish returned to the lake. <br /><br />Not my most productive outing, but nice to be out early in the morning after sitting at home over the weekend.<br /><br />Regards, Labman
