Found this on the bank of Lake X today, along with hundreds of others. The lake was down at least a foot since the last time I was there and the mussels were lining sections of the bank. Mickey and I showed up around 9:30 and started fishing around 10:00. The bite was slow to nonexistent to start and did not pick up much all day. We thought we did a good job of fishing by thoroughly working the tops. I think the fish were there just watching our offerings go by. Mickey broke the ice when he enticed one to hit a spinnerbait. He caught another one on a redeye shad just casting around the boat out in the open, or so we thought. Making the same cast again, he hung on the log that the fish had been hanging around. I missed one because I had forgotten to set my drag. When I put my rods up for the day, I loosen the drags in an effort to keep them free and smooth. A little later another bit the plastic and made it to the long handle net distance. Another came in on the chigger craw on a rugby head jig a little later. We were about to quit and load up when Mickey suggested fish the concrete ramp since the wind was blowing straight in to it. I lost another to a weak hookset because of a bow in my line (that’s my excuse) and caught another before we quit. We ended the day with 5 fish and a nonweighed FOD of around 4 pounds.
