Fishing was tougher than expected. Caught one fish at the back of a cut on the jackhammer, but the remainder were in about 10' of water along large rock portions. Fishing the new Powerbait Football Jig w/ Maxscent Creature Trailer or the Bifflehead w/ the XZone Adrenaline Craw caught the bigger fish off of one spot. One other bite on the DT8 that popped off. Couldn't find them in the emergent vegetation and didn't have any significant bites up shallow.

Weather was overcast and rainy for a long part of the day (a rarity in CO). Water is extremely low, about 6-10’ low from typical. Got out after work and put in the kayak. Caught three right off the bat on a 100’ stretch of large rock. Fish were just a couple feet off the 45 degree bank. Had to run the Jackhammer super slow to get them to eat it. Had 86” for my best 5 in half an hour of effort. Managed a few other fish off of various structure/cover, but the larger ones came off the rock. Anytime it’s overcast in clear water, bust out your favorite moving bait and get to work! The new Kamikaze Craw by Big Bite Baits is my new favorite Jackhammer trailer for a craw or bluegill imitation. Goes on easy and the flappers provide great water movement without affecting the action of the blade.
