After the baloon fest

[P.A.W.]

Only 6 or 7 boats out this morning and water is down a couple feet. 70* +- and starting to color up a bit. Stripers are still absent. Metered all over the place and found no bait schools or pods of fish. Trolled all the normal and then secondary spots. Nada. I stopped periodically to fish some good looking tullies for LMB. Slow there too, but finally stuck a 4 pound jig-pig. Overall kinda disappointing considering the last few days were closed to boating. Guess the incoming front and full moon affected the bite. Stripers are another matter. Almost 3 weeks now with virtually no action. Maybe they are spawning by the dam?
