Tough, Tough Day!

[Buzz Wing]

Well, boys, today was toughie!

My father and I entered the water sometime around 5:30AM and figured we'd head straight to the creek to see if she was puttin' out some mud since last nights rain. No mud but we figured we'd hit it anyway. I started with the Strike King Red Eye Shad and dad was throwin' an old Bagley topwater propbait. Each lure was casted numerous times to no avial.

Sun starts to break the horizon around 6:05 so I figure I'll sling the new Bandit 300, "Bluegill", I picked up at BPS yesterday night. First cast produces a 6" bluegill. Go figure!

As the day progresses we work the banks casting cranks and PNJ's, again to no avail.

Around 7:45 BigBassin144 shows... Finally! Get on the TM's and chat for a while then head over to the little underwater point I know of. With four people fishing, I finally hook a small 8" bass in a Nemesis Stick, "Watermelon-Red". Dad also gets two in two casts on an old Heddon Clatter Tad.

Few more hours of fightin' the wind produces no more fish so we decide to pack it up around 11:30. As we're loadin' up BigBassin rolls up and said he got one on the drop-shot so he stayed a little longer searchin' the depths. As of that, I have no clue. I'm sure he'll fill us in...

Overall, it was a tough day. This past week or two are really making us struggle for some reason.
