after spending a relatively unproductive morning fishing Lk. Mcmurray, we got in the water here at about 1115. it was a nice sunny morning with almost no wind, and there were 4 other boats on the lake besides us. i caught our first and only fish within 5 minutes of the ramp while trolling powerbait. we trolled the whole lake and did some still fishing at the old honey hole and various spots, but to no avail. had a couple of bites, but that was it. talked to one guy in a canoe that said he caught a couple small bass, but no one else seemed to be doing any catching. this lake was really looking bad the last few times we were here. this time, however, it was looking a lot better. the creek that feeds into the lake at the NE end seems and sounds to be flowing a lot more freely, so perhaps that has something to do with it. it was an enjoyable am/pm fish. we loaded up the canoe and headed home about 1345.
