Fished 7:45-1:30 Water temp was 76 to start and 78 to finish. Cloudy/Sunny/Cloudy/Rain/Thunderstorm Approaching Wind 0-10 mph Started off throwing flukes per Jon's (Pski) reports. It was slow to start with only a couple of misses at my first two spots. I then got 4 near or at my next spot (2 lmb, 2 smb) and 2 lmb at the spot after that. I was concentrating on casting the fluke in 15-20' looking for suspended fish chasing alewives. That seemed to die off or the next three spots weren't productive. On my way back to the second spot I hit a lmb with the drop shot and a findbass Mino and once there I caught a short lmb on the same rig and missed one on the fluke. Back to the original spot where I picked up a smb right away by dropping the minnow down to a suspended fish on the finder and then ended the day missing one on the fluke. Not a great trip, but not a dissapointment either. First four fish were all a little over 15" topping out at 17.5", the next three lmb were 12-13", and the last smb was 15". I probably had 10lbs for my best five. Not winning potential, but not bad either.

Sounds like a good day of fishing in my book. My cousin has a buddy who's parents own a large cottage on that lake (right next to a very steep cliff area) His buddy is a serious trout fishing guy and says its a pretty good all around fishing lake. I hear its one of the more busy lakes in the summer though. I hope to check it out this fall.
