Went to Barkley today.... Was all hyped up for a top water frog bite......Started fishing buck brush and did reasonably well on a Ribbit frog with a double hook set-up....Caught 4 keepers best around 3 pounds....It was overcast most of the morning till about 1 pm then the sun came out and frog bite died....I went to secondary points and caught several smallish fish on a crankbait in about 7 feet of water but nada on size....5 pm I moved back into shallows hopin the frog bite would emerge again but all I caught was a couple dinko's ..... Then I remember this culvert I use to catch fish off of when they transitioned from bedding to post spawn....This area is 8 feet deep in the culvert itself and away from the bank leading out to main body of the creek it shallows to 3 and 4 feet with a gravel bar that runs way out into the lake....I got the old worm rod out and said to meself i bet there are a few girls still bedding.....Caught 5 keepers off this bar and culvert area in about 40 mins time took 3 pics......JIGGY
