I made a quick trip to Ferguson this morning as it stood at 30.5 feet. It seemed at first that the bite was lagging but as time went on you could tell it was picking up. You would see bass schooling and coming up on the shad.  My time was up at 9:20 because it was getting hot and the man was coming today to start to raise my house at Catfish to maybe keep it out of the flood waters. I caught 8 but none were over two pounds. They seemed to all be deep, not in one place, and maybe suspended out in deep water.  Of course a DT-6 was the starter, and a DT-10 came next, both catching fish but they were not “catch one every cast” concentrated  as I like them to be. Since the house action has started, I doubt if I’ll be fishing much, at least until the weekend.
