Captains log 27 September, scratch that, I'm not a captain. water temp 72 degrees, weather 82 sunny and bird blue sky's, winds light(under 10) fished the main lake points on the west side of Alum Creek today. stayed in 15 ft, this put me close to 1 cast from the outside weed line. 10 hrs and i caught a couple of cute ones and a couple of wally,s. (they weren't even enough to make a samich) todays tools of destruction (non-destruction) 1/2oz Rattle trap, Berkley dime 6 sexy shad, stunna +1, 3/16 moon eye jig head with mooch minnow gizzard shad, neko rig green pumpkin stick bait, green pumpkin flat worm on a drop shot, and a micro jig with a trd trailer.( like Bardie I can't get myself to throw a ned rig, this one has a skirt) ALL my fish came off the drop shot off of the marina break walls sitting in 15ft. not sure what i'm going to do tomorrow. its not fishin like June. Any suggestions?
Learn from this: We fished a private tournament today. Multiple large fish were caught. A 7lb’er won the pot. Here is the lesson learned. When a co-angler, who fishes a lot of BFL’s, opens the livewell on the way to weigh in, don’t let a 5lb fish jacked up on G-Juice jump out and escape over the transom. As the boater I just shook my head and giggled to myself. As Brian mentioned in the “keep your fish alive” session… leave the livewell closed. Still had a fun day and stacked the experience ladder further.
Lost another good one today trying to get the dang net. I have to get a handle on boating these bigger fish.

Hey fam, been on the struggle bus of late. I can find them, I can get them to chase, I can't get them to bite. Swim jigs, chatter baits, football jigs, Texas rigs, spinner bait, drop shot, and wacky rig. Sometimes I get a couple of bites, but no fish. I think it's definitely user error. Any technique suggestions to save what's left of my summer fishing? Thanks in advance!
