    Very calm day and an unseasonably warm fall. Initially we hopped to and from known boulder piles looking for fish. Fish were orienting to boulders and holding very close to them. We had our best luck in very shallow water. The Damiki rig jigged vertically with the forward facing sonar worked very well and we picked up several aggressive fish. Later in the day, some of us switched to dragging small suckers over a very shallow shoreline on a transition from gravel to short-growing aquatic vegetation. We picked up several fish with this technique as well.

    Bites were tough to come by so we locked the simplest bait we could think of in our hands to get bites. It paid off for a few of the right ones!
