Then the front hit an wind picked up pretty strong and the bite died. Ended up with 16. Best 5 probably around 25#. I guess I should have fished the open. All but one came on a chatterbait, shallow.

May take my dad out there next week. Nice fish! Water color is pretty dirty in Buck area. However, don't let that deter you. I caught all my fish there. Keep in mind it keeps them tight to cover and shallow. Many hit it about as soon as my lure hit the water.

I caught all my fish last week in a different area of the lake but they all came within a 50 yard stretch. Yesterday I caught 4 in one spot, 6 in another and 5 in another. All in about 50 yard or less stretches.
