On Saturday we will have a new moon and there will still be bass on beds due to the early season cold water. Water temps today were between 68 and 70.

It was pretty windy in the afternoon.

The lake is still down about 6', but if you are careful and follow your trails if local or stay near the marked boat lanes you should be OK.

All fish 10" and up are keepers. Only the best 5 count.
