Things have been getting hotter here as the weather gets cooler.
Shiners and suckers along the rock wall are producing lots of fish but smaller than the spring bite. A few 16"-18" are to be found during the day but you will have to deal with good numbers of 10"-12"s to get to them. Its amazing to see a 10" bass get a 6" sucker in its mouth.
