Went back out with cdtac1 today to Beech Lake to pre-fish for a club tourney I have there next Sunday. We did pretty good. Water temps were 53-55 degrees and fairly clear.  Caught fish on a variety of baits from chatterbaits in the lillypads, to jigs, to crankbaits, to shakey heads. Most fish came on Shakey heads and Jigs. Keyed on banks with blow-downs. Not just any bank with a blow down would suffice. We did the best on the banks where deeper water was closer to the bank as opposed to a more gradual slope from the bank to deeper water. Most fish were between 8-15 ft. deep. My big fish was 21 inches long. No idea on weight as the battery in the scale died. Oh well, she's still swimming to be caught and weighed again. Headed to Glenn Springs in the morning with cdtac1. Will report back tomorrow!

Nice fish guys ! Its getting that time of year and I'm getting more excited everday.
