Weather was overcast and rainy for a long part of the day (a rarity in CO). Water is extremely low, about 6-10’ low from typical. Got out after work and put in the kayak. Caught three right off the bat on a 100’ stretch of large rock. Fish were just a couple feet off the 45 degree bank. Had to run the Jackhammer super slow to get them to eat it. Had 86” for my best 5 in half an hour of effort. Managed a few other fish off of various structure/cover, but the larger ones came off the rock. Anytime it’s overcast in clear water, bust out your favorite moving bait and get to work! The new Kamikaze Craw by Big Bite Baits is my new favorite Jackhammer trailer for a craw or bluegill imitation. Goes on easy and the flappers provide great water movement without affecting the action of the blade.

Definite prespawn bite at Boyd Lake. Water is 8-10' low relative to typical summer levels. First cast of the day along the rock, caught a rainbow trout on the new Storm Deep Wiggle Wart. Caught one more trout in the same stretch. Continued fishing the rock. Dad caught a decent smallie on the same lure. I caught a small largemouth on a jerkbait. Found a stretch where the rock came out into deeper water and started getting bit multiple times on the deep wiggle wart. Casting it right on the bank and slow cranking it out to about 6' was the ticket. All-in-all, had a low 80" limit between the two of us with the largest being a 17" smallie.
