The cold front has the fish pushed back out to deep water. But a few still come in to feed in the mornings mid afternoon and right before sunset. I’m looking for parks and street ends that have little sandy beaches, especially with boulders, near a deep drop off. Didn’t get one fish on any hard baits today. Most came on a Spark Shad. Weightless with and EWG hook. Fan cast the area, let it sink and slow roll it back. Just enough to get the tail to flicker. 15 mins at a spot, no bites move to the next area. This is also gonna work in any of the local small pond/lakes. Phantom, Boren, Greenlake.. etc.

It was cold, windy and partly cloudy. I was covering water from parks and piers with a Chrome Rattle trap, chrome blue fox, and various Senkos. I work and area for about 30 mins and move on. All three fish today came on the Lipless, straight slow crank, no jig/lift and drop. Fish are in about 15-20 feet of water. Mostly males. You’ll see the fish chasing schools of what I believe are trout fry. First smallie of the season. 1 of four for the morning. Looks to have been making a bed. It’s about that time y’all ! Tight lines!

Skipping under docks and pitching between boat lifts. Action was consistent all morning. Lots of Rock Bass but the TRD elastic holds up great! The further back you can skip the better. Fish were aggressive! They would even hit on the reel back in so go slowly when reeling back.

Fishing from the bank at a local park, the online app says water is at 62, I think it’s colder. The fish are in 6-8 foot of water near shore, chasing perch, I had been getting lick on the Whopper plopper, but switched to a blade bait when it slowed. Was pulling this above and through the submerged grass, yo-yo style, and he hit it on the fall.
