Fished solo from 8-noon. 38-deg driving thru Coalville. Water started at 65. Same good action for 10-14" fat & sassy smallies, but the perch have pulled up stakes.
Ran into 3 boats of guys I knew, and met 2 others, all of whom are certified perch-hounds and damn good anglers. Only one of us got some of those yellow fish with the black stripes, and he got 'em at 30'. Said he moved out there 'cuz his usual spot was taken. Had some perch strips with him, and that may have been the ticket. Smallies doing the same thing as they are at Jordanelle ----- positioning themselves
in 10-15' out from shallow, flat bays. Gorgeous day. 70 when I got off. Could have used some wind. Glassy except when the lone waterskier went by. Gonna try Rockport Sunday.
