    Fishing was very slow from 6:30 until noon . . . much better afternoon. Large pods of bait with some larger white perch and large crappie hitting the deep diving plugs . . . along with niche channel cats to for pounds also grabbing the baits. Fish were on long and gently sloping points near the main lake.
