It was a good day out on the lake, the wind was blowing 15 to 18 out of the south east. water clarity is about two foot out by the main lake. the water temp was between 57 and 61. The farther you go back into the pockets / coves the more the water temp goas up. I caught 6 throwing a war eagle spinner bait and a kvd j1100 jerk bait. and stayed on the windy side. all my my bites come in between 5 and 10 foot of water.

Water temp was between 50 to 56 way in the back of owl creek. water clarity could see down about a foot. started off throwing a kvd 2.5 fire red color caught 2 or 3 on that. then I moved out and started fishing points with a kvd 6 XD and only caught 1. This time off year with the winter we have had what ever a person decides to throw needs to be fished slow.
