Fish were super shallow in the morning. Burning a spinnerbait above submerged grass and lay downs was a major producer. Once the sun got higher switching to a more natural color was key to getting more bites.

Fish were found in 15 to 25 foot of water. Pitching a drop shot on the edge of larger chunk rock was a key factor. Fish would also eat a jig on bottom but did not prefer a ton of action. A slow drag and a trailer with subtle kick was the most effective.

Trout were roaming in big schools in deep water close to the surface. Making long casts into areas that fish were breaking the surface was best method for targeting these fish.

Fish were tucked under laydowns along the bank. If the trees had vegetation and bluegill in the area they would hold more then one fish.
