Glad a few kitties came out to play yesterday for you Pat. Looks like the water was much clearer for you compared to last weeks report. This time of year the catching can sure be on and off.
We put all our eggs in one basket yesterday by counting on a good bite on the faster troll and that did not prove to be a smart move. We are planning another trip out on Weds with 2knots and will for sure be bringing fligs on that trip and fishing much slower. One good thing to report, we were marking a lot of suspended fish between the Island and Freeway way, so they were there, we just could not make the conection, even though we tried just about all our normal go to Willard lures. We think it was likely just a slow day but from past experience, we also know that when the water level changes it also changes the way the fish bite and it can take a few trips to dial in the new pattern, at least for trolling cranks. Maybe a couple more days of stable weather will make a difference as well.
