Fishing opener weekend. Was able to catch several quality bass on a shadow rap in perch color as well as, the arashi vibe in black silver. Fishing the furthest west bank parallelly (maybe 60 ft away from all the docks). About 14 feet of water, and just running the baits over the top of vegetation. Also caught a few Walleyes doing the same thing.

Crappies are staging up for spawn. Lots of 8-10 inch size. Small plastics with 1/32 and lighter jigheads works great.

There’s a lot of vegetations near the docks where I was at. I did a weightless Texas rig and threw it in front of the dock. Within less than 3 seconds, I felt a tug and set the hook. It was also a very sunny day too.
