LJ 6/18 - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

Fished between 5:30 and 11:00 between 50-120ft deep off the NW corner. Bait was easy (for me at least), 8 inch greenbacks right outside the reserve. Picked up more bait out at the grounds even. Moved around a bunch trying to find a good sign, fly lined the whole time, stopped and threw a swim bait periodically. No bites on the macs, two calicos on the soft bait. No problems with dogs. Water still has that greenish off color I have been hearing about. Current and wind were trying to cancel each other out which made for funky slow drifts. Easy launch and landing.

It's good to see a report, even if there's no fish tail to go with it. Water is getting warmer, so hopefully YTs will be coming in soon, even if it's the smaller variety.
