Three things going against Rob and I, no wind, high pressure, bluebird sky (just like to list excuses so I don't think the fish are smarter than me). Got on the water at 10, caught our first fish at 12, only had 8 by 2. We searched a lot of places, couldn't find more than 2-3 fish at any of them, checked structure, creeks, in and next to river channel, 30fow was were the shad were at. Finally at 2 the fish decided to group up a bit and bite (if you can call it that) in 31fow next to a bend in the river at the bluffs. Ended the day with 55 on the counter, 6 small striper, rest were sandies. Water temp started at 47 and got to 50 over by the bluffs later in the day.

Not often you see Whitney that glassy.

Man I that’s some tough fishing. Glad you were able to get some sandbass anyway. thumb

Fishing up here is tough right now with the shad kill. That sounds like a pretty good day.

Good fish and perseverance wins again. Along with being a good angler,knowing where not to look and using the correct lure.
