Fished Newton today with my two boys from about 2:30 till 4:00. Didn't catch a single thing. The water was still pretty cold. Anywhere from 60-62 in the main body up to 64 in the arms. The water was also very clear. I could see the bottom in 13' of water clearly. With the clear water we were able to see a few tigers, one that would easily go 40". We also saw a real nice bass that would go better than 3lbs. We weren't set up to catch anything but panfish but from what everyone we talked to said they weren't biting anyways. Well hopefully the water will warm and the fishing will pick up in the next couple of weeks. The first week of June always seems to be the start of hot fishing anyways.
