First thing, the boat ramp is a little hard to access at the moment. Anything bigger than a Jon boat might not be able to launch.

Bass were being a little tricky to start the day, but the bite heated up as the water warmed up. Temps were 52-59 degrees, and fish were in 8-10 ft of water. Clarity was about 1-2 feet with tea-colored water. So, I went with spinnerbaits and umbrella rigs for most of my bites. As the day went on, I found fish on the edge using swimbaits and caught a nice crappie before sunset.
