Went out thinking water temp was going to be cooler so we could run faster baits, chatter or spinners. water temp 68 deg. Picked up a few pike. Switched to worming shallower weed beds and found the fish.

This lake typically gets a bad rap for being filled with small fish, but used to be an outstanding bass lake. Find healthy, isolated milfoil patches and there will be better quality fish (up to 3.5lbs) schooled together, often 6-10 fish per patch, especially if there are bluegills schooled above or on the edges of the foil. Once the lake association sprays for milfoil, this bite will disappear quickly.
