First trip to Hubbard didn't didn't do to we'll. Fished by the dam, gravel pit and also tried south of Robertson park. Didn't see any schooling fish. Below is a screen shot of my finder, I supposing that this is large group of shad? Had a constant number of fish under me all morning but nothing. Used mostly slabs and also some jigs, nada not even a bite. Anyone else have luck thus morning ?

big bait ball.

looks like some fish underneath

Bait was every where just like that today. We caught 11 fish!

I had the same score....I caught 1 17" hybrid and that was it. Marked alot in a couple different areas but no takers either.

I was on Gene's boat this morning from 7-11am. We caught about a dozen sandies, two short hybrids, some yellers, and three blacks. We had to work for them. We went to all the places that Gene typically caught fish this time of the year, did marked a bunch but only few takers. Saw lots of boats today. Water temp was 76.5 degrees. The depth caught were 15 ft or less. Good seeing everyone out there. Thanks for a fun and relaxing morning, Gene!

A few pics for show and tell.

Most of the fish were caught on tail spinners, slow rolling at the bottom.


Water was flat calm most of the morning.


At noon, got invited for lunch at Frank's. Frank and Aaron did a great fish fry and chicken fried deer meet...yum. Fianlly met baby Mad Max, Terry and Katie's son, Ladies man grandson. Good looking boy! This is Aaron with battered deer meet. Thanks guys for a good lunch and good seeing everyone there!!

Where was my phone call?

We ended up with 26 sandbass, lots of yellows and a few 15-17" hybrids. Definitely a tough day. The best fish of the day was this nice channel cat from the dock

Here is Shen Zen's very first fish EVER!

This is typical for September. October will be better if the temp falls off.

+1...I would have brought some fish and deer meat..LOL

I'm sure they've got a pot u coulda licked

Is he cooking the deer meat in an old hub cap? LOL

Austin, if only you were on the lake doing your usual potlicking then you would be invited too. LOL. Got a call from Frank at 10am ish saying Aaron and Frank are doing an "impromtu" lunch, so they can meet baby Max and Frank was aware Gene and I were on the lake from my earlier post.
