They was on beds at Palestine last weekend. So I’m sure they are doing their thing at Athens.

Caught them dirt shallow on flukes Sunday. Saw a few beds, but hard to see the fish with the rain.

Males were on beds Saturday, they are just moving up, so many people they are very skittish. Aggravated a couple into biting just for fun. Observations from the last time I was there last year, the grass spraying combined with intense pressure has already done a number on that little lake. There is grass there but not even close to what it was unfortunately.
See you on the lake and have a great day!

I caught fish all day. No overs. But a bunch of good unders and slots.

Thought that was you, we were the guys in an older Blue and White Ranger who talked to you as you were working a small fish by a boat house, I was on the back deck. It was a nice day to be out, too many people for me..
