Also, when I was on JPP last weekend in the Long Hunter area by the main channel over 65ft, there was HUGE balls of bait sitting at around 15-20 ft. And there were several large arcs under the bait, assuming hybrids. But they never pushed the bait to the surface and we were geared for crappie. But something maybe to try.
I fished JPP from my yak on Sunday and only caught one Largemouth that went just over 14". I figured it would be a tough day with the front that had recently passed through but I expected to do better. I saw a few fish busting shad on top but it was very sporadic and they didn't want what I was throwing. I checked tonight and the lake is now just below summer pool and the floodgates on the dam are still open. This would seem to indicate that they are bringing it down to winter pool although slowly. I've heard that it has been hit or miss on JPP in the last week.
