I have been lurking through this site for years and and got some great tips from here so I finally decided to join. Glad to be here! Could ya'll please help me with this lake that I'm having trouble with right now. It is 1,100 acre man made lake, 65 feet at it's deepest spot, and water clarity is usually 2-4 feet. It has standing timber, dollar pads, lily pads, hydrilla and coontail. Two main creeks feed it. Water temp right now is 60 +/-. When the hydrilla and coontail gets good, thick, and green I can go over there and whack em. I don't have trouble finding good fish then and usually catch a 5 every time I go, but right now I cant find one to save my life. The only place I can get bit is in the dollar pad stems in the back of the creeks but they are all small. All the hydrilla/coontail is thin and dead so I'm not getting bit there. There is a ton of standing timber in 12-30ft. Could they be suspended in there? Thanks in advance for any replies.
