Started fishing at 0615 trolling a Flatfish and a Hotshot, caught 7 trout (released 2) in about 20 minutes. Thought I would go after some spiny ray after catching the limit of trout. The lily pads are not up quite yet but did manage to get a few bluegill, only 1 decent sized one that was full of eggs so I turned her loose the rest were quite small. Only got 2 small perch and no crappie so I headed home at around 0830. Warmer weather and another couple weeks should get the bluegills and crappie on the bite, mid to late May is usually the best time for them at Whitman.
