Not much has changed since the last report other than the wind has been horrific. One day not fighting it in the last week. Wednesday was heavenly with no wind as I had to relearn how to stand up straight in the boat and not fight wind.
Active fish have still been holding in the faster current seam areas in a little deeper water. Hits have come fairly quickly when fishing in a new spot but seem to be more little fish. The big fish are taking all of 20 minutes or so to get on the bait. It sounds like cut sucker or cut sucker is the bait of choice and that is all I have used and it is proving successful. I have not heard any reports as to if goldeye is producing much. I have heard that it isn’t working from some anglers, however.
Water temps have finally surpassed the mid-50s and with a couple more warm days should edge up on 60 putting the bigger fish into action.
I am currently taking bookings beginning May 20th and on through the summer. Fishing is about to get really good in the next week or so.
