Well.. haven't fished much this month due to vacations and work... got out two nights ago for a quick 3 hour trip, from 5pm till 8pm at a local sandwash... Managed to catch 6 bass on senkos and swim baits.... mostly in 10 foot of water off slopes near bank... to much going on... Farm workers were swimming all over the lake... diving in off of trees and motoring around lake with a rubber raft and diving in randomly around the lake... surprised I caught what I caught... but it was nice to get out... water temp was 91 degrees....
