Fished from 3:00 to 5:30. Overall not to bad the traffic was pretty light. Fished the south side from the bouy line up to the point in old river channel. Caught 3 trout right away on castmaters trolled at 1.8 to 2.1 MPH. Graphed a lot of shad schools and the gulls were feeding on that side. Saw a lot of fish on the bottom. Switched to a smoke tube and a white curly tail jig then bottom fished hoping to get into some walleye. No luck I only caught 3 more trout. Caught 4 last night and kept 2 for dinner, but would like to find the walleye.
I haven't caught any smallmouth since August tried fishing deeper structure off the dam, but can't get any of them to bite. Still better than sitting at home.
Another couple of weeks and the lake will be left to the fishermen...
