Lake Ferguson was 19.3 and had fallen about 9/10s of a foot in the last 24 hours. The bass were not very active for me in the first few hours as I only caught 3 small ones. Later about 11 a.m.  is when the action came. A 6 – 0, a 4 – 0, and a 3 – 0 all in rapid sucession and all even pounds. Also all on a found Poe’s crankbait. Then came 4 more bass between 2 and 3 pounds, a couple of catfish (which made Willie happy) and that was it. The reason for the Poe’s is that on almost every cast I felt the bait run over a silver carp. I did not want to lose a DT-10.  One bass was mottled with lots of black spots on the top of his body toward the tail and also the tail. The picture does not show it well. Look at the fin under the gills and see how translucent it is and compare it with the tail and the other two rear fins. I believe it was the “solid” 3 pounder, as Sandy Ingram used to say.
