Top 5 Update

Back with an overdue Top 5 Update, our first since July 29. August has always been a lean Top 5 month and thus far it looks like 2019 will be no exception. Thus it was a treat to see an email entitled “Top 5 Update Submission” show up in the Inbox this past week.

Angler Comments: Fished from 5 to 8:30 p.m. Partly cloudy with air temperature in low 80s. Water clear; temperature 82 degrees. Hooked but lost what felt like a good sized fish but never saw it. Caught two other smaller fish less than 12 inches. Two other fisherman on board got bites but no hookups. The fish appeared to be in good condition. Plump bellies.

Thank you, John, and kudos for getting out there and getting it done. Also fun to see some bass from an old familiar fishing hole as I haven’t been out there for quite a few years. Keep up the good work and anybody else that is fooling some fish, send them my way. Talk to you later. Troy
