Launched at 7:00A to try some bass fishing for the first time this year at Cassidy. REALLY like the lake: undeveloped, lots of pads and shoreline brush, cattails, eagles and red winged blackbirds singing all morning. Unfortunately, I've only had spotty success there and today I couldn't interest any bass in my various offerings. Pitched and trolled swimbaits, then worked the shoreline with a variety of plastics...Nada.
Spent an hour trolling trout to think things over and managed to C and R a couple nice stockers, then back to the bass for another unsuccessful hour. Called the game at 11:30 and home for lunch.
