I was also there yesterday with high hopes of catching a few Wipers or Walleyes.
I arrived at the north marina around 7:30am. There were no other vehicles or boat trailers there yet. Around 8:00 someone in a kick boat showed up and a couple kayakers.
I played around in the marina for a while chasing many of the marks that clutter the screen of my fish finder hoping to catch perch or crappie with no luck.
Next I trolled flicker shad through freeway bay with no luck. Still seeing a lot of marks including swarms of bait fish on the sonar.
So I raced over to the rock piles outside of the south marina. I spot locked the boat and dropped a piece of worm on a jig over the side of the boat, and started casting and jigging back a worm on a jig. I ended up catching four cats the largest being 19 inches.
The water temp. In the north marina was 65* in the morning and 68* in the afternoon.
