Hit up burr oak this morning and got off to a fast start catching 3 fish within the first hour powershotting grass edges and they were absolutely choking it. Those fish were all d***s so I went looking for a bigger bite. Started to target main lake points in deeper water with the higher water temps and caught another d**k. So I decided to pick up the big stick and go up shallow punching isolated lily pad clumps and managed to find a bigger bite.

Got to the lake later this afternoon and put in for about 2 hours to check water conditions and a particular area of the lake to see if bass were still guarding fry. Got an answer to all of my questions rather quickly and managed to put a couple of fish in the boat.

Picture 4 was a summary of my day at Alum. Short strike after short strike.
