A few days of sunshine in a row seemed to have them moving up shallow to get some warmer water and chase baitfish. Rocky flats had some mostly 12"-13" fish in the skinny water, while the better ones I caught came off the drop-offs near there. Found a couple holding on brush piles and brought those in with the finesse jig/craw combo. With the water level up right now and warmer weather this week, I'd look for them to get up on more sunny chunk rock for pre-spawn.

Heavy rain from Friday had the water up, with muddier water on the east portion of the lake. Spinner parallel with the bank up in the shallow rocks paid off early in the dirty water. Water clarity was better on the west side, and started to find some areas with water temps hitting 50 degrees past mid-day. Fish seemed like they were more spread out today, but most were all caught up shallow in rocks in sunny spots. Missed a nice upgrade in a shallow nook/arm, so they may be starting to move closer to their spawning spots. Curious if the cooler weather this week starts to push them back toward deeper areas or not.
