Hit Tarboo this morning at about 6am. There were only 2 other boats on the lake. I started trolling with a foxtail, no luck, switched to a wedding ring, nothing, switched to rapala lure, nothing. Everyone else on the lake was catching fish left and right so after an hour and a half of not catching anything I over heard another fisherman tell his secret. A tried and true method, but a secret none the less for this lake, so I tried it out and bam, I couldn't keep the fish off. All in all I caught my limit in a hour. Mostly planters, but kept a 17 in lunker and oversized hold over. It was overcast and the wind was blowing a little. It was a satisfying trip and i'm glad I went. I think i'll go tomorrow too. tight lines
