The lake is high, so, we motored up to the flow and fished amongst the spawners. The majority of the fish were on the soft edges of the bank in groups of 4-6 with the males pushing the females out into the flow and then doing their business. We consistently caught fish with a few doubles thrown in, however, there was no "EPIC" bite due to the lack of holding water and the fish more interested in the procreation. Great way to spend an afternoon in the Ozarks.
