Thank you for the info, with this knowledge I will probably just fish a little pot luck benefit tournament on my home lake. We are 8 1/2 feet high but the water is just perfect for a flipping bite.
Something else to keep in mind is while skipping and pitching you can actually guide your bait where you want it to go by moving the tip of your rod one way or another. Its not a huge difference but it can be huge when your talking about big fish in shallow water
All together though, coffee cup accuracy Id say most normal people would top out around 25-30 feet on a calm day.
The lakes around here are mostly based on deep ledges and brush piles, so I typically am casting a jig a mile and short hopping it on the bottom with one to two second intervals between hops. Big 3/4 or 1/2 oz. footballs are king on my home lake, and when I say brush piles, I mean very small odd things not giant conservation piles.
Absolutely LOVE G-Loomis. As one of their higher end rods this one is supreme. The only issue ive ever had with mine was the insert coming out of the top eye, but I think that was due to my lack of awareness. LOL
Honestly the rivers around here are really underrated. fishing a small 2.8 keitech or a zman trd craw is the way to go! Kentuckies should be on fire after the water calms down.
rip-rap is an awesome place for spots on Lake of the Ozarks. Not very big fish but FUN!
I would love to stay in touch with you as the season progresses! I am for sure going to favor a big jig and offshore stuff, but i also love to flip shallow wood. How do we exchange contact info without everyone seeing it?
Okay awsome. That's what I like to here. I love finding cover, and if I can find any rock at all I'll feel 1000 times better. Guess I'll just have to wait until next month to see. Getting stir crazy though!

Okay, so I am looking for some help with lake Eufaula on the border of Alabama and Georgia. I am planning a trip to go fish it this summer, (middle of may), and in the fall, (middle of October). I have a very good understanding of fishing in general but I am a Midwest guy. Big rock lakes like Tablerock, Lake of the Ozarks, and Beaver are all I have really ever fished so I am almost completely lost on a grass lake like Eufaula. HELP!
