Claytor is still fishing solid a lot of rain today. No giants today but several solid ones. All the fish I caught where on moving baits. Most of them came on a swim jig around lay downs in future spawning pockets. The water is slightly stained and the temp is around mid to higher 50s.

The water was very clear. The temperature is mid 50s to 60. The bite was thought likely due completely blue bird skies.
