    Back up at school after spring break and got out to catch more trout. Bite window only lasted 2 hours this morning between 6-8 am. Sitting in 60 feet of water fishing only 4-10 feet below the ice. Later in the winter the trout tend to move off shallow points and flats. Using a larger version of the flutter spoon pictured in the hot bait section in the wonder bread color. Caught 6 total, but saw way more than that. They were extremely finicky.

      Humps

    Caught trout on something different than normal. Lipless crankbaits were working early this morning from 5-9 am. Sitting in 15 feet, off the edge of the hump in the photo. Jigging high in the water column from 4-7 feet down. The bright colors seemed to work the best. Barely jigging it as well. Just slight twitches.

    Got on to some rainbows in the morning. Caught around 10 in 2 hours from 8-10 am. They bite anything but mostly like the shiny stuff in my opinion. Caught on a gold forage minnow and wonder bread forage minnow. Sat on one spot in 15 feet of water and was jigging from 4-12 feet below the ice. Biggest one that was caught was 18 inches, and the smallest was around 10 inches.
