Out again today on a full day trip with Chappell Padgett from Rome, GA. We got started around 8:30am and fished until 3:00pm. We started out throwing Swimbaits, jerkbaits, and lipless crankbaits on some main lake humps, but only managed 2 small keepers both on a lipless Jackall. After fishing 4 or 5 points I decided to go check some deep schools, the first school was on fire. We landed 20-25 spots in no time, most of the spots were 1-2lbs. On 6lb fluro w/ a dropshot it&#39;s a blast, they never quit. We moved on after about 45 mins of action there and jumped around fishing a few more schools during our day. Most all our fish came on dropshot w/ a few coming on fish head spins and spoons. Ended the day returning to the 1st area we fished and found some solid spots. Chappell caught a couple of nice 3&#43;lb spots and lost 2 others really nice fish on the way up to end the day. Had a great time today Chappell, look forward to our next trip.<br /><br />Here is a picture of Chap&#39;s better spots today, little better than 3lbs.<br /><br />I have days available in December if anyone is interested, the bite&#39;s just gonna get better.<br /><br />LB
