I hit Sheldon Friday. I ran into a couple of Game Wardens who were very courteous and professional. When they asked me if I went there often, I said that I quit going about the time the last round of break-ins occurred. They stated that they worked hard to get the situation under control and encouraged me to go more often. I caught one Friday and one Sunday afternoon. The fishing was tough for me, but I have a lot to learn about the place.
I caught both fish throwing a white chatter bait on a flat of pad stems. There is a ton of hydrilla in the lake about an inch below the surface. It made the fishing tough.
