It was kind of one of the slower days I've had there. The fish just didn't seem hugely aggressive. I ended up catching 46 from 1230-730pm, but only got maybe 15 that would be keepers. Most of those were 14-15", I didn't manage anything larger. I did see a few in the 3-4lb range, but they were all just sort of aimlessly cruising the shallows and showed little interest in any of my offerings.
I caught a few on a bluegill colored spinnerbait early on, but most were on soft jerkbaits and wacky rigged Dingers. I did find a nice calm backwater in the evening which I just waded as I'd packed up my tube already. I was able to catch several of the better fish buzzing a weightless swimbait across the surface. I love topwater, so at least I got some on that. There was a lot of deeper brush there too that I'd be curious to try in my tube.
