I stopped by Woodruff late this morning after my morning muzz hunt. Water level is about 25 ft below full pool (just guessing). Walked back into an area where I've done well in the past. And started casting jigs. Had one on briefly and another short strike, but they just didn't seem that interested. Threw some spoons for a bit, but not a single strike or follow that I was aware of.
There was some sporadic surface activity so I switched to a fly behind a bubble. 2nd cast and I connected with a beautiful colored cutt about 16". Not much girth but was a welcome end to a skunk.

My next cast was rewarded with another solid fish of about the same size. Love the spots and yellowish coloring on this fish.

Both were released to fight again. I only caught 2 more after that, both about 12". The fly was the only producer today. Water was very cold to the touch.
On a side note, I saw a flock of turkeys clear up on the top of Monte Cristo. I've never seen turkeys up so high.
