Notes

Barometer steady at 30.34 for first hour & then rose up to 30.35 during last hour. PRESSURE WAS BASICALLY STEADY

Fish were aggressive all morning. Saw a fish chase baitfish in shallower, nervous water below riffle area. Promptly caught 1st smallie @ 12" throwing to area with single tail grub. 2 more caught in deeper "nervous" water slightly farther downstream.

Tried bottom bouncing with Predator craw with no luck. All fish caught/hooked on steady retrieve. Big fish lost near top of rocky flat next to deeper hole below island.
