BTW did you try the main lake at all?

I did fish one spot on the main lake. It was a bluff and I caught my only 2 keepers and a drum. It was about a 200 yard stretch. I'm kicking myself now for not fishing on the main lake the rest of the day after that first bluff but my buddy that went with me talked me into fishing his "honey holes". He's fished there a few times and he had me fishing main lake pockets and a creek. I wanted to go back to the main lake but he is a good fisherman and he wanted to show me around a little bit. Even though we struggled, I still had a blast. I love fishing new lakes and working the jumbled up puzzle that comes with that
