Yesterday I walked down to the resevoir behind my house . Wind was blowing so hard there were white caps ,looked like you could have surfed out there. When wind wasn't blowing bugs were horrible. I found a shallow area in a small cove and was throwing a suspending slash bait. Caught about 30 to 40 large and small mouth . Best day I have had back there and have been fishing it for 33 years since I lived here. All nice size fish and no Pickeral ,which in itself is a blessing.
Up to yesterday I have always hated fishing in the wind.
