Big changes to report here. The fish have split from McGee Bay and moved towards the north end concentrating near Layton Springs, Alligator Pt., Six Bays, and Sandy Pt. Depending on the wind direction these areas will hold fish. You need to find the cleanest water on any given day as the algae bloom will shut down a bite. The lake continues to recede, still have another foot to go before it hits the low point from last season. The cooler weather has chironomid (midge) activity on the wane, perch fry & larva patterns are currently the best imitations for still water nymphing. Streamer fishing has also slowed due to the dissipating weed lines & concentrations of perch fry. Full sinks with Loebergs and my "blood sucking Vanderleech" are good calls along the shoreline in Six Bays and Sandy Pt.
