I went by chicken creek, the ladders and soldier creek. Chicken creek had a few people fishing in waders. They all had to walk out quite a bit to get past all the weeds and grass. The Ladders has a bit of open water but it looked pretty crowded. I'm betting this weekend has more fisherman that space available. There were a few areas around Soldier creek back in the inlets where you could fish. We fished from around 8AM until 10AM. Only caught one crawdad and zero fish. I got 5 or 6 bites on tube jigs but I couldn't land any of the fish. No hits on minnows and power bait. I didn't have any luck with Rapalas, or Lucky Crafts. I could see fish swimming around which was cool. A couple of them would follow my lure back from time to time. I have a ton more pics but I have to get back to work so I'm only posting a few. Also the temp was 27 degrees on arrival and 48 degrees on departure.
