Not good. I fished the lower end of old hick Friday, down around DuPont and the rip rap at the dam. Covered a lot of water, caught a lot of fish and had a great day. Actually had an idea of what to expect for tournament day.

Get on the water Saturday, stop at our first area and automatically notice that the lake was down about 3-4foot. We went in to station camp creek, started at the duck blind and fished waaaaaayyyyyyyyyyy on down that bank. Picked up a couple dinks and 2 that we’re 13” 15/16. So close to being a keeper. Lol. I lost a good one on a spinnerbait. 🤦 we move to cages bend area.....fish the mouth, with nothing and then we are fishing the back of the creek and I caught our one keeper of the day. 2.02 lbs. It was pure luck that I caught that fish. I made a bad cast and thought my squarebill had gotten hung up in a dead weed bed but it was that fish.

After I had thought about it and hearing some of the “dock talk” the fish had moved back out in the ditches and creek channels. The big fish caught in the tournament had nice dark color, and looked like they had been shallow for awhile now. So maybe it’s a sign that they are wanting to get up shallow.

Idk, just hope my fishing and decision making gets better. It sure sucked yesterday.
