Joe Pool Lake, Texas

Date Fished: 06/04/06 Water Temperature: 75 Water Clarity: 1

Started around 6:30 this morning. Beau and I started off making a run to the left arm of the lake. I hardly ever go that side, but the wind was calm and a friend of Beau's said he was ripping it up on that side by thick hydrilla. We never really found that spot, but I did manage to catch 3 on that side including a fat sand bass. This was the first time I have been hooking them using my lake fork baby ring fry this season. We tried a few different areas, but decided to head to my sweet spot. On the way there, we noticed that the hydrilla was everywhere along the shore line leading to my spot. We made a quick stop and I hooked 6 small ones within a hour with my white spinner and Beau used a white senko and managed to hook a few. He also caught the biggest of the day using a watermelon trick worm, but failed to land it.

All in all we had a good day.
