I Fished Sunday morning from 6-9:00, i fished the upper end of the lake and found fishing to be slower, i moved mid lake and began to see more activity, as i advanced farther up the lake to the warm area fishing seemed to be best. all fish were caught tight lining jigs over laydowns and stickups.

Chasing the cleaner water, I found myself in the higher 40’s for water temp. Although the water is cold, the high sun and a warm day will absolutely draw the fish to the flats on mouths of coves near spawning bays. You may not be chasing as many bites, but the ones you get are worth putting in the boat.
