Got on the water with my buddy Rich at about 5A. We started trolling but after 15 minutes of non-stop rock bass Nirvana, we changed it up. We casted for about 20 minutes before first light, and I finally managed a smallie on a chatterbait

We then moved to the deep breaks for smallies and had a good day. We tried 4 different spots, and caught multiple bass at each spot.

One of our first doubles of the day

I think we conservately caught around 20 fish, and we missed several as well. Many of the fish were in the 14-15'' range. As the season goes on and the water cools, the fish will get bigger :wink:

I would say that it was at about 75% Saturday. With the cool morning though, it took awhile for the pleasure boaters to get out there. Almost all the boats were still moored as well. I expect those to start getting pulled very soon. Most of those guys have no interest being out there when the weather is in the 60's.
