Got out again this morning. Started at 7:00 and left at Noon. Had my limit at 9:00. All the same as the last couple of times. Water temp was right at 73 degrees. I haven’t spent much time on the timber as the brush has been so good. I always give it a peak on the way to the brush. Pulled one nice one right off the bat from it. Moved over to a brush pile that has been on fire and pulled 24 in an hour and a half. Then just piddled around until about noon. Trying to get a 2lber. I meet Billy Kinder at the ramp this morning. He parked next to where I was getting Ole Yellow ready and he came over and spoke with me for a little bit. Really nice guy. Very nice day to be out. The boat traffic is getting back to what you would expect on a weekday. ![[Linked Image]](https://texasfishingforum.com/forums/pics/userpics/2020/05/full-53204-52270-cbffd447_2129_47e9_bce2_982b98756cc3.jpeg)

Sick Em ROD What was your jig of choice? 1/4 oz unpainted with a dark body chartreuse tail, then switched to solid chartreuse body. It was one of Lane Palmers baits and I must have caught 40 fish on it! It is still hanging in there and will be used again!

Thanks for the report If you see Ole Yellow swing by and maybe I can let you know what, if anything, is working.

Boat traffic is better but that lake has been mostly empty for the last few years. Nice trip, made an evening run and brought back a few dinners.

This is kinda creepy Rods, but I was at Navarro Mills not too far away, started on black body chartreuse tail, then switched to Lane's Thump Chubby in almost solid chartreuse but a bit of white up top. Hah! I feel smarter for using the baits you did! LOL! Nice haul good sir. I limited out but it took me a lot longer.
