Hi Folks, Ran the boat yesterday morning with a spin angler. Big time fog in the early am and really did not lift until around 8:30am. Pretty interesting driving the boat. Electronics are helpful. The surface temperature was 71 degrees even though the air temperature was in the low fifties. Pretty flat and calm for half the morning until a slight wind from the northeast kicked in. We had two fish rise to eat a popper , but that was it. We slowed things down with a 5" watermelon and really began to tug on fish. We landed 4 smallmouth bass and 5 largemouth bass. The common denominator was milfoil beds. Every fish we had take was holding in and around the edges of big milfoil beds. Water is really clear where I fished and you could see the fish cruising. We did see a bit of nervous water with the bass chasing bait fish and and a cast into such an area resulted in takes from the predators beneath. With the cooler weather in place for a few days, the river trout fishing should remain consistent. I am off to test that theory this morning with clients. Remember to clean your gear and keep the non-natve species at home. Have Fun, Willy
