Expected fish on beds but did not find them. 15mph wind with gusts to 30 kept things interesting and hard to fish main lake points. Caught one good one off a letdown in the back of a windy cove.

We started the morning fishing the shad spawn on main lake red clay banks. We caught fish throwing a spinnerbait up into the spawning shad. Once the sun got up the spinnerbait bite ended so we started fishing docks. We were skipping a Senko under floating docks. We caught all of our fish on docks that had a boat docked to them creating more shade for the bass to hide in.
