Fished Gallant Elms from 7 until 4 on October 30th. 

Caught 18, 14 were culled.

No real pattern was found and the standing timbers were not as productive as in the past. 

The largest was about 3 lbs and the other keepers 2-3 lbs. 

Most were caught in 2-6 ft on active lures. 

Productive lures:

- Rattletrap 

- Shallow and medium diving cranks

- weighted soft plastic paddle tails 

- Zara Spook

Non-Productive Lures

- jigs

- senkos 

- frogs

Conditions 

- Water clarity clear to 6-8 ft

- Water temp 66

- Sky completely overcast until around 3PM with a steady drizzle most of the morning 

- steady wind 5-10
