The bite was VERY soft. On a couple jig fish we just lost feeling with the jig so we set the hook.
WE saw the weather forecast and knew it was going to be tough, especially after 10-11am. We convinced ourselves it was going to be tough and to just keep fishing. We went straight into the west pond and beat the banks early circling the entire west pond. Tony caught our 1st fish on a jig in about 4' within 2 minutes of us starting to fish. We then moved out onto the humps and got nothing. Back to the banks for another circle. Tony quickly boated 2 more on consecutive casts including our lunker. Same deal , jig in 4-5' of water on gravel banks. We got nothing in the wood all day and nothing up tight . Finally I contributed and boated out 4th fish about 15 minutes later on the jig in 4-5' of water. It was 9:30 and we had 4 fish. Then the wind started and built and built and built. We circled the entire Billington sea draging jigs in 3-6' of water and ripping jerkbaits. I caught my limit of pickeral on the jerkbaits. At the end of the day with 1/2 hour to go we went back to where we started the day and made 3-4 passes on the shoreline. Tony was throwing a senko and missed 3 fish, one on the hookset, one after about a 3 second fight and one came unbuttoned 3/4ths of the way back to the boat. FINALLY at 2:45 I was ripping a jerkbait over some left over weeds and got our last bass. We then made a B-line for the ramp and made it with about 3-4 minutes to spare.

Cool report thanks for sharing nice work and congrats
