What great weather and conditions to be on the water. Super calm, especially after the forecast a few days earlier was calling for it to blow.

On the water around 2PM till 6PM. Tried the Elgin's God Tooth 50/50 blue and 50/50 gold but that didn't work out. Finally Caught two around 15-16" on my three bites really late in the day after an Asian gentleman told me he got his limit at 50ft. Seemed like lots of flash was the key. Herring dodger and hammered nickel got the two for me on Saturday, lost the spoon with the third hit and couldn't get it dialed back in. Oh well. Still a great day on the water. Haven't had much success yet in the new year. Happy to be out and make some fish tacos :)

50' seems to be what's working most consistently for me, too. I had a great day with the Elgins' over the weekend, but today they were blanked. I caught my only fish of the day on a fluorescent green Reli spinner. I tried a very similar spinner in a hammered metal finish, thinking "bright day, bright lure" but didn't have any luck. It's just weird how the fish love one color on one day, and something else entirely the next day.

Great Report! its been hit and miss for sure, we were out on Sunday....nothing for 3 or more hours. Tried several spots and about noon decided to try the weather buoy with white spinner hoochies. We caught 6 in about 30 minutes, including a double, then it completely shut off, and we headed home. All fish were caught at 36ft. The number of fish we marked while circling the buoy was pretty crazy. I guess we should have started there!

I spent most of the day in the same general area but I don't think I was changing or checking my gear often enough. when the bit was on, my line barely hit dept before it was hit again. Can't believe how hot and cold this lake can be in a short period of time. Make it for a fun time on the water. Active Fishing haha

@moonvalley I was also thinking bright day; bright lure. Seemed to work for a little bit but could not be more different on sunday.
