Wheeler Practice

So fishing on Wheeler for the last few days has been great up to now.  Today I really struggled.  Fished down lake from the Elk river to the dam including first and second creeks, spring creek and a bunch of little main lake cuts along the main channel.  I caught one keeper all day, actually that was the only fish I caught all day.  William caught three keepers all day and a few very short fish but he wasn't really trying to catch the big girls.  Prior to today limits have been no issue but adding up to 11 or 12 lbs isn't going to cut it on game day so I really need to find a few kicker fish and well CATCH them.  Tomorrow's plan is to re check my shallow dealio and make sure the fish are still active but for this to work the water cannot drop out of the bottom of the bushes.  Always a worry on this lake.  A bit of rain would help my confidence level with that bite.  If the lake drops I will be kinda screwed but I'm sort of used to that lol.  Tomorrow is another day and I hope my confidence stays high.
