biggest i was up turtle creek today did well. they are definately on the flats. caught all fish in five to eight feet of water.

 

[betster2]

one more thing to add the fish on the flats there bellies where clean and white. fish caught in deeper water bellies where dirty.

I did just the opposite for depth.I got 4 keepers and lost another at the boat in 20' to 30'.Minnows,minnows.One good one at 23.75"The snot grass was just aweful as was the cross wind.For some reason I can`t wait to get back.
