I have a club tournament there the 18th. Do you mind giving me a hint on what baits you caught them on. Any information made be greatly appreciated. Thanks Jody. Tight lines

These fish were all caught in less than 10 on a shad colored crankbait or a swing head jig with a beaver. I’d check secondary and main points, dragging a jig or crankbait. Might be worth looking shallow to see if any fish are on beds. I don’t have the best track record on that lake lol.
