I'll be at state park in the morning aswell, I would recommend sand branch about halfway back squarebills natural shad patterns, spinnerbait, bladed jig and cover water till you find them they have been grouped up in areas my last few trips. You will catch alot of small ones, but the bigger ones have started showing up more regularly the last few trips. I think tomorrow is going to be a great day to fish I plan on fishing till about 4 or 5. With the weather moving in friday I think they will be really feeding up tomorrow. I have been wrong before, if you see me out there say hi I'll be in a white and silver skeeter zx250. My plans are to hit sand first thing and then head to wolf and Indian to do some exploring. Good luck to you bud! Brad is "Legend" on Roberts I would do what he says. Well if my attempt to help the guy out was so far off maybe you should give some advise bud. I also never claimed to be any good on ray roberts.  I didn't mean it in a bad way it was advice that is spot on.

Im out of town on business and all I can think about is the bite on RR. I've gone every Monday since last Monday and quality increased as the water temp decreased, makes sense.
let us know how its fishing. I will not be back until late November......

Main lake points with deep water near by. Catching fish in the first 1/3 of the creek but not any further back. We are pitching small soft plastics and jigs and fishing spinner baits and square bills in the same area. Cover water and when you get bit, fish that area good even if you catch some little ones. For quality, having confidence in a bigger bait seems to be the key right now. It is hard to do when you know you will get bit every pitch with a shakey head or drop shot but you have to put it down or fish a bigger version of the same bait if you want to catch quality. The nasty days the fish seem to be really tight to the cover and the nicer days they seem to be roaming and chasing bait a little more. Not sure if this is everyone's experience right now but this has been my pattern for two weeks. It is a lot of fun out there right now!
See you on the lake and have a great day!

The better bites I got on Saturday were on the first break about 1/3 of the way back in a creek. Fish were in timber in about 10 foot on the edge of a drop to 20. Besides that it was all short fish on square bills and blades

Fish were in timber in about 10 foot on the edge of a drop to 20. I have always heard 90 percent of the fish were in 10 percent of the water, this report means 90 percent of the fish were in 80 percent of the water at RR. Fish a seasonal pattern and you should get bit. Remember fall means shad migration up the creeks. look at your map, and fish the creeks with the best defined creek channel.

Those dinks love a shakey head it's like a every cast thing now! These guys are on the dot with fishing seasonal patterns. I tossed a squarebill today got some more size throwing that until I got a treble to the thumb lol.

See you on the lake and have a great day!
