This outing is for Saturday, May 2nd. Fished from about 9am to 3pm. Started out fishing in what are obvious spawning areas and didn't see anything, so slid off to the first drop and caught a couple small males on a jackhammer, but nothing worth writing home about. After that left the spawning bay and pulled just outside that bay to a main lake grouping of docks, and it was on! Large momma's were waiting at the docks to make a move to the spawning grounds. Caught a handful of 2.5 to 4lb ladies on a jig skipped up under the docks. Caught 3 on the first docks, 2 on the 2nd docks and 1 on the next couple. Wow was that fun! Water temps were in the mid 50's and it was windy out of the west, with air temps in the low 50's.

Find the warmest water and make long cast to cover as much water as possible. Fish seem to be hanging on first break before the spawning flats.
