Beautiful day out at rattlesnake. We fished the west shoreline along the trees. The casting was a little frustrating with the wind. The fish seem to be cruising around the shallows near the shoreline, at least the bigger ones are. We fished for about an hour between 9:45 and 11. I caught one decent fish, my dad got skunked. I'm going to try earlier in the morning next time I go out see if I can catch more of the bite. I've caught all the fish in the past two days within the first five minutes of fishing between 9:45-10:00. Then it just dies. Fun day though. Great weather and one beautiful 14" fighter.
