The lake laid down pretty good this day. Was a beautiful day to be out but the calm water and high skies made the fish wary despite their numbers. The lake ranged from 38-47°. The fish have been deep but we noticed anglers catching good fish from shore so kept that in our back pocket. We tried 22-28’ of water. Small ones only. We tried moving shallower but the big fish didn’t seem to be willing there either. We did a lot of scoping in an attempt to find some schools. We could see bottom in 35’ of water. We decided to head back to the launch area. We were in 3-5’ here and the water was murky. It was also very warm… 47°. We proceeded to catch a ton of perch here. Big ones. The VMC finesse football jig helped walk Crush City Ned BLT’s and Suspects (Canadian shape) around rocks and wood. What a day!!!!
