Found a few fish staging on breaks near grass and rock. Finesse fishing in sheltered areas from the wind.

Outing was on 6/7/2025. Sunny calm morning on Tonka. Water temps were in the upper 60's to low 70's. Mostly fished the west side of the lake. Sunfish were up shallows, so tried to stick shallow. Caught some frog fish up shallow around panfish and slop. Also had good luck around docks with senkos in pumpkinseed color with chartruese highlight tip. No bigguns, but plenty of action.
