I hit the water with my friend Gary at approx 7:30am. The weather was cloudy and about 75 degrees and it looked like it was going to rain, ( yeah! ). Water temp at the marina was 81 ( wow).
1st spot we hit was Greenbrier Creek and went into the no wake zone at the head end. Water was dingy, maybe 6inch viz. I started throwing a buzzbait, my friend threw a small chatterbait, nothing was caught in 20 min. I then went wacky rig with a split ring setup weightless with a manns hardnose senko wanna be in a watermelon red flake ( my go to color) and a little of some Mega Strike ( thanks to the user that i forgot his name, that told me of this stuff) after about 4 casts I started getting hits and I missed a 3lb largmouth off a stump because I did a wimp hookset. ( blah!) I caught 2 keepers a tad over 15inch and 3 dinks. Gary had a goose-egg because he wouldnt throw what I was using.
Next stop we went into Little Blain and fished a spot I call 'coal bank' and I caught a 4lb carp on a crankbait, and 3 dinks on the same cranky. Gary caught 3 dinks on a Pop-R, water was clearer than greenbriar and 79 degrees.
Last place we went was the mouth of Daniels Branch and I didnt catch anything there and Gary caught a red eye rock bass on that Pop-R and a dink on the senko worm.
It was a nice day to fish other than the local tourny going on and all the guys in it, think you are in the tourny too and cut you off and is just rude. It did not rain, but it was cloudy all day with some annoying wind.
** All fish caught were released back to be caught again.
