Hit the lake at 6 am . trolled for a bit with pop gear and wedding ring to no avail. decided to anchor and bottom fish across from public launch where the old dock is. Just as we started fishing (with chartreuse & rainbow powerbate) a dear came down to the dock and drank some water. The fish were jumping everywhere around the boat but the only thing we caught was some zzz's. I love fishing but I hate it when there around the boat and not biting. it is a tease.. we were skunked no hits, no bites, no fish
