5:30am started out cloudy w/ light rain,later in the morning bringing partly sunny with 5mph winds with afternoon blue bird skies

The morning started off unexpectedly slow, fishin topwater frogs and buzzbaits around lilly pads with two short fish...Mid morning brought in more action catchin one 13 in. around bridge pillings w/ a four inch berkley power worm Blue Fleck...Then comin across witch seemed to me to be a 200ft ditch with the deepest being 10.5ft and the fish were just stacked in there.....the first i cought was 19 inches. along with 3-12inch fish, 2-13inch and 2- 14inch fish, all on the berkley power worm Blue Fleck!! once the blue bird skies rolled in started fishin tight to docks and surrounding cover with no takers
