our first time this year at 16, and it was an awesome morning. the sun was just coming over the hill and the morning mist was rising from the lake at 0630. we waited our turn to launch and got in the water with 4 other boats. we trolled for the first hour with no luck, throwing out wedding rings, pop gear, spoons, and various baits. finally bubba got a hit on a red fly he tried, and we landed a pretty 12"er. we continued fishing, mostly trolling and still fishing, for 2 more hours and didn't get another bite. we did see a few fish being landed, but nothing to write home about. it was a beautiful morning on the water, but fish-wise, very unproductive.
