Wanted to take advantage of the rain and fish this lake one more time before it closes. Fished multiple tactics with minimal results unfortunately. Got two bites and they both missed on the first attempt but got it on the follow-up! One I lost as it leveraged me against the pads and came off. The other made it to the boat and went 4 pounds even.

Water temps were 56.5* and it rained off and on, hard at times. Was hoping for more but that's how it goes. Literally fished from shore to 25' probing the logs that litter the bottom of this lake and outside weed edges. Both bites came from a 15 foot radius.

Trout were very active though.
