The Strawberry yesterday with a friend and 3 kids. Launched at 7:30 and started off north of mud creek. Located some schools and jigged for them with very little success. Plenty of fish on the finder but not much action. Tried different color jigs tipped with different things and different scents but they had lock jaw. Saw some fish crusing the shallows and casted to them and they would follow it but not hit it. Trolled (long lined tubes and rapalas) over to the knowles but the fish were too deep for our long lining. Marked more fish over by the knowles and jigged there a got a few. Moved over by the ladders and marked more fish and got a few more. Lots on the finder checking out my jig but very few takers. Ended up catching 5 fish, all cutts 18-20 inches. Not what i was expecting since hearing all the good reports lately and I can usually hold my own on that lake. Who knows, some days are that way and I'll just blame it on the full moon!!!
