Finally got a chance to get out on the lake with dad, and probably the last chance for at least a couple weeks as my wife is being induced on Monday morning 8-)

Got on the water about 7:30am.  The water was amazingly already 59degrees.  We had no idea it was so warm already.  We went to the west side of the lake as we figured it would be the warmest and the fish would be up shallow, with the males possibly getting ready to start the beds.  I pulled this one at 8:00, off a large grass flat in about 3' of water, burning a Chrome/Blue Back Strike King Red Eye Shad.  Would be my only fish of the day.

Dad ended up with only 1 fish as well at about 1:00 on a Firetiger Bagley BB2 off a rock point in about 2' of water.

We tried finding some beds, but that proved pointless in about 5 minutes as the water was very stained, couldn't see anything.  We tried everything to catch fish today, shakey heads, I had 1 bite on a jig, t-rigged lizards, senkos, spinnerbaits, everything, just couldn't get them to bite.  The storm last night might have had something to do with it.  Oh well, was just great to finally get on the water again.
