12-3-11 Fontana is still hot as a pistol. There are schools of fish in a lot of places right now. The only thing is that you have to be willing to fish deep for them. Left Lemmon Br. and stopped in the middle of Greasy Br. flats first and the schools of shad were thick around 70 feet, scattered all around the flat with schools of spots mixed in. Moved to the Tuck and after a few stops found massive schools of fish from the surface down to 85 feet with most biting at 75. There were smallies, spots and whites all mixed in, and the easiest way to get them is to troll with small crankbaits. Stopped and tried jigging for a minute, but didn't have the patience to stay with it seemed they were moving around and trolling was the best way to stay on them. Have fished way deeper lately than I ever have and there are just so many fish deep it's been fun. Later Capt. James
