Went to lake Sunday with a good friend to try the bait bite and we were not dissapointed.Early mourning the yellows were aggresive and would hit just about anything plastics/hair jigs plain or tipped with crawler or minnow.As the mourning wore on they started to get finicky and by far the best presation was a piece of cut bait rigged on a lindy rig with a 3ft snell drifted slowly over the bottom.The cut bait worked nice as you did not have to rebait very often.Also this rig produced 3 14to 15 in eyes with a 17 in fish lost at boat and the majority of our yellows.Monday I went back to lake and had another good outing with the chart/black jointed shad rap trolled at 2.5 mph inches off bottom.I trolled for 4hrs and got 15large yellows a 15 in crappie and 3 keeper eyes.The fishing has just been good and now that the big summer weekend is behind us it should even get better
