Got in some bass fishing Saturday morning before meeting the girl to go wine tasting. fished for striper early no takers on swimbaits or chovies. switched to LMB late morning through the afternoon, had to walk all the way to the end of the south shore to find any fish. got one bite from a male who was just starting to defend a bedding area. didn't see a bed but did see a 2-3 lb female just off the edge of where he was. line broke on the hook set, must have had a nick in the line from the rocks i had been fishing just before. totals, no fish in 5 hours. still a beautiful day for a hike around the lake and good to see the fish moving up. no so good to see a boat angler throw a 3-4 lb fat female in his ice chest. can't be upset with him but there should be a C&R only season in the spring to protect the spawn IMHO. I'll be heading back there in a month or so, this storm front i think will stall out the spawn. 2-3 weeks after should be epic.
