    Took the kayak out to East Rush for the MN fishing opener. Caught a mix of bass and pike on an electric shad paddle tail paired with a 3/16 VMC swim jig, including this monster 36” pike. Fish seemed to be holding to the ledges in 6-10 FOW.

    Report is for May 11, Fishing Opener. Weather was mostly clear, high pressure. Water temps between 56 all the way up to 65 later in the day up shallow. I got out scouting some new tourney lakes for me. Fish weren't quite as up shallow as I would have expected. Some of it I attributed to the high pressure system that rolled through Friday night. Overall scouting I caught and saw plenty, but no bigguns. Ran the trolling motor about 2 speeds higher than I normally would have to try to see more water. Fish were really out on the deeper edge of reeds, caught a few on an All Terrain jig with craw, half ounce. Also caught some early on topwater. Overall a good day of scouting!

    Took the kayak out for the fishing opener. Caught bass, walleye, and northern pike, all on a 3/16 oz VMC swim bait jig with a Bass Assassin Elite Shiner 4” paddle tail. All fish seemed to be schooled up between 6-10 FOW along the ledges.
