Jackson and I met at the ramp at 6:15 this morning which was about 30 minutes later than it should have been. When we launched we just started fishing. I had on the trusty Booyah spinner bait and Jackson had a super spook junior. He caught one on the second cast. A few casts later he had another strike but the fish missed. Finally after a couple more missed strikes I changed to a cripple killer but could not buy a strike even with it.  After we moved I did manage to change to a super spook junior and caught one quickly. They continued to bite the quiet topwaters although they missed a lot. The lake is being drawn down and is 2 feet lower than normal with 4 feet left to go. There is a current in the lake that we thought might make the cut between the North and South ends a good place. When we arrived there, we caught fish under the bridge immediately but they were white bass (stripes).  Only one black bass did we see there and that was when he jumped and threw my red eye shad.  We checked back with our spots on the shallow side only catching a couple more on shaky heads and red eye shad. Jackson and I have talked about giving an hour or two to just running the deep bank and using the side finder to find some spots with some larger fish. We did that today, looked that is. Some spots had some fish but nothing that seemed to be enough to stop and fish for. What we did see were shad, shad  and more shad. The bait in that lake is amazing. We then traveled down to Ditch Bayou where the water is being drawn out. Catching nothing there, we fished a few docks, caught a couple more and then hightailed it to the ramp. We ended up with 15 and a FOD of 3-1.
