Open Water/Basin
Back up at school after spring break and got out to catch more trout. Bite window only lasted 2 hours this morning between 6-8 am. Sitting in 60 feet of water fishing only 4-10 feet below the ice. Later in the winter the trout tend to move off shallow points and flats. Using a larger version of the flutter spoon pictured in the hot bait section in the wonder bread color. Caught 6 total, but saw way more than that. They were extremely finicky.

Humps
Caught trout on something different than normal. Lipless crankbaits were working early this morning from 5-9 am. Sitting in 15 feet, off the edge of the hump in the photo. Jigging high in the water column from 4-7 feet down. The bright colors seemed to work the best. Barely jigging it as well. Just slight twitches.
