Like Skeeter mentioned, the water is very low. We had some great success a week ago fishing for the toothy critters. We went up after work so we only had a couple hours to fish. We didn't think we would have time to launch the boat so we fished from the bank.
I was pleasantly surprised to have some great success considering we only had a couple of hours of fishing. Since you have to launch at the Cemetary Point ramp, just stay right there in that area. We fished from the bank and had six hookups. We broke off two and landed four, the biggest of which was 40 + inches. Surprisingly, they took 2-1/2 inch red and white Daredevils. Don't forget your steel cable leaders. My buddy lost the two because he is not used to fishing for Muskey and only had six pound line. The fish were all right around and literally on the boat ramp. It was drizzly out and there was no boats coming or going. We had the place to ourselves. Good luck. Hook'm pretty.
