Went to fish lake Sunday,was on the water at 6:00AM and started jigging out from twin creeks in 40-50 feet of water,I was marking fish on the bottom and was trying only for the mac's,We all tried different colored jigs,pearl white,Rainbow,Pumpkinseed,and white,all where 4 1/2"in length tiped with minnow.the first hook up was a 16" splake,after that we didn't hook another fish for an hour so we moved,to in front of Joe's bush,marked fish there and started to jig in thirty feet and worked out to fifty feet,I hooked into another splake 18".and father-in-law hooked another 14" splake.about 11:00AM went to bowery marina to warm up and eat some breakfest.We got back on the water around noon,and started trolling big plugs we caught two more splake and two rainbows all around 14" on a 5" white and orange wally diver.
We faught a steady NW 20 mph wind the whole day,air temp was cold enough to freeze the water on the boat,and could not stay over the fish for long,because the gusts where around 30-40mph,It was cold and miserable,but gave it a good try and was off the water around 4:00PM.
Water temp 43 degree's.
Lake was full and clear.
Later,FNF[cool]
