Just not getting any love from the banks at Benbrook. Are the cats still somewhat shallow at wind blown banks or are they further out now? Could use a little help... man..it's tough on this lake for banking kittys.

Met up with DCM there sunday, Not a bite. We were banking it by the creek side where the timber is. right there by the boat ramp. Didn't catch jack. Probably going to have to try Lavon for banking it pretty soon. Usually do good there from the bank...

My buddy and I blanked when we went last week on Wednesday. Five hours with nothing. We went to Rocky Creek first and there were about 4-5 other guys cat banking it. Before we got there one had gotten about a 3 lb. Channel but that was it.
It looked like some guys were catching Crappie off of the Rocky Creek Marina dock.
After my buddy left I went to Mustang Park along the creek and saw a guy pull in about a .5 lb. Channel but again that was it.
Spent about an hour there and all I got was yellowjacket sting on my knee.

I know how y'all feel. I've fished Lavon, I've fished L'ville, all the good lakes around the north areas, and for some reason I just can't get on 'em. I've put a few eaters in the box, but I must have some sort of funk that the fish don't like. I've gone out there with some of the wisest owls around, but when I step foot on their boats, the fish exit stage left...
