Yesterday 3/10/21, was my first trip out on the lake, though there were still a few small pockets of ice about the lake. Not a good day to fall in, for sure.!

But I've been fishing this lake since I was in cloth diapers, and know its secrets, intimately.

Most folks would think the fish would be in deep water at this time of the season, but fish are cold blooded, and are a product of their surrounding. They must eat to survive,
so they must follow the food.

This lake is full of golden shiners ( like the ones in Florida)
and they are the first into the shallow, swampy bays.

Swimbaits mimic these shiners perfectly.

Working them slowly through Lilly pad roots, and last years vegetation, will put you in gods grace.

Fish pics coming...gotta go to work.
