fishin clear water

[zooker]

i went this morning down to badin. blue bird sky, very clear water conditions,big high pressure system over nc, and NO wind. not excatly my first choice of ideal fishing conditions. i got a cat fish on a devil horse at day break. worked farther out from the bank than normal . found my most consitant spot has a new boat dock smack on top of it.-said few choice words- caught 1 keeper bass on a deep runner shad rap. in this area had better luck from the brush pile in 13 feet of water. and a demon claimed another victim. busted out the x-rap and yanked a short fish from a rock pile.about 10 am i ran to the docks catching 1 on the x-rap and one on a weightless super hog in pearl under a dock. big fish of today was 2.5 or so.but water clarity was 6 feet -i could see the super hog 6 feet down on the bottom. it was a challange casting a spinning rod 40-50 feet to skip a bait under a dock. normally i am 10-12 feet or less..
