Headed up to Joe's Valley yesterday to try for a larger splake. No bigger fish were found but enough fish to keep it interesting. The active fish were in very shallow water, anywhere from 2-5' Spent a fair amount of time in 6-10' of water with little to no action. Fished tubes tipped with shiners and chubs. Very interesting to see your bait a few feet below the hole and watch a fish swim in a pick it up. All total I landed 26 fish between 12-17". Mostly splake with a couple tigers mixed in. Beautiful place, beautiful day.
