Got to the  property at day light and started fishing in my Ultrskiff by 7:45am. The wind was 10-15 MPH. I had just purchased a Deeper Chirp Sonar. I would suggest this for any member. Easy to use and would work fine if you are using the club boat. I marked many fish all around and in between brush piles. Lots of fish. I threw everything, Spinner, Chatter, Jerk bait, square bill, lipless crankbait, texas rig. Just to try to catch something, I tried jigging around the brush for crappie, no luck. Finally, at lunch break on the bank, I caught a dink bass. Water temp was 46 degrees. The wind picked up after lunch to 15-20 with 30 gust. I fought the wind until 3 pm and finally called it a day. Nice propery. I will be back. There are tons of fish, just a bad day. The BassForcast was fair until the day before and turned to poor, it was correct.

46 degree water and 30 mph guests make a tough day a fishing. Warmer water in about 60-75 days will get them going.
