SOUTH CAROLINA | Lake Greenwood | MAY | PM | 72 | 24 | Shad Rap - Suspending - Green and white | boat docks | 4 to 7 feet | clear and sunny | 76 | I arrived at the lake about 1pm and didnt figure the fishing would be great. Over the next 4 hours I caught 7 bass. Most of them were 1lb or less but one of them went at least 4 lbs. I was surprised at how good the fish were biting. Nexst weekend is a Holiday weekend and I can't wait to go back for 3 days of fishing. |
