Last week I signed up for vacation and the weather report was for a beautiful week. Of course that has all changed!
I got out yesterday, after the cold front, and the fishing was really tough. Managed five caught but no size. I did have a 3lb fish try to rip my arm off while I was swimming/ hopping  a ½ oz jig. It is amazing how strong they can be at that size!
I’m heading out again today because the forecast looks ugly for Friday and Saturday.
If someone has time would you please stop by and mow my grass?

Are they blowing up on the shad balls up there?   

Not yet Jack. I was really looking for that yesterday but the last couple of trips it has been hard to find the bait fish. I caught six yesterday, largest being 4.2, but they all came on 10” worms in 10 to 20‘ of water. They were on the drops. I got there early, first light, and tried buzz baits, spinners, lipless cranks, and swim jigs.

JM it looks like you guys are going to get it worse than us. I don’t know about your area but we are 10 ½” behind on rain this year. Launching the boat is not a problem though; when the boat gets to the end of the ramp the trailer sinks out from under it! Some of the guys with the bigger boats are having problem. They have to keep their trailers from dropping off of the ramp or else they can’t pull it out.
 
Greg my SNL’s company is having their company picnic at Holiday World Saturday. I told them to take their raincoats. Good luck on the track and field events.

We were at Paducah yesterday for a school event, and it looked like rain a good part of the morning, but it cleared-up and got warm again.  That little bit of rain we got enticed the grass to grow a bit more, so it looks like I may have to do some slight mowing once again.
