Fished 7:30 a.m. to 9 a.m, air temp 63F, wind southeast 4 mph, fished off of Cedar Street Landing, downtown Minocqua. Surprising all weed growth along this shoreline was dead. Managed to catch one small northern and a largemouth bass on a chartreuse spinnerbait. Fish were over patches of sand grass. Fish were in 6-8 feet of water. I tried fishing out to 30 ft depths, with a variety of baits, marked very few fish or bait fish. I was fishing out of a kayak and decided to move to a different lake.

We were casting into the weeds and along the edges. Looking for scattered fish and they were absolutely loving the wacky worm.

Slowly dragging a craw tube on top and on ledges was producing for us on a relatively slower day.
