Fry
Nice day at Malouf. Fished about 6 1/2 hours and caught 17. Three were 12-15 inches the rest were 18-21 inches. Lost two 4-5 lbers at boat (always at the boat & always the biggest). Caught one large, aggressive bluegill that choked a chatterbait.
Water was super clear and down maybe a foot if that. Water temp surprisingly was 83-84. Majority were caught in 8-12 ft along the grass edges. Chatterbait was the go to with a few on a swimbait, senko and spinnerbait. Caught three in the "deeper" trees on a 10" power worm.
Malouf apparently had a good spawn. Large pods of fry about 2-3 inches long throughout the lake around the grass.
