      Found some pre spawn largies today in offshore grass. I was using the 3.3 keitech with the northland underspin to make my bait stand out in the wind.

      Got fish this weekend April 23/24. Both came off a Strike King Jerkbait in the Strobe Shad color. Chartruese Belly, Ghost Middle, Purple Back. The water I was fishing was 50-52 degrees. The fish seemed to be deeper on weedlines. The area I was in the fish ignored slower presentations like Senkos, dropshots, and finesse jigs. The key is to find the warmer water currently, look for mid 50's to low 60's. Had a few Northern strike at crankbaits, all in brown craw or brown bluegill patterns.

      I was using a red craw lipless all day and caught about 40 bass! Biggest one today was a 4.5lb bass!

      I was fishing Tenny park last night for the Wisconsin opener and got into some decent walleye action. Jerkbaits were a key bait and 4 inch gulp minnows. I would slowly drag the gulp and they would just pick it up. Tight lines!

      I was fishing the Monona bay today and had some success on a megabass 110 perch pattern jerkbait. Make sure you make a long cast, jerk it and pause. They have been smashing it on the pause for me. Goodluck and tight lines!

      Bouncing a 13 Fishing Jabber Jaw shallow diving crankbait off the rocks enticed a 44 incher to visit me inside the kayak.
