[QUOTE="NDwalleyes, post: 373637, member: 218"] Can confirm that Vollmer is not exaggerating on how good the fishing is. You won't find a better time to go. Seems Van Hook and all of the points east to Dakota Waters are holding fish. In the morning we pitched the 3-5 foot range and then slid out to 6-8 when the sun popped-up. Jigs with minnows and plastics worked just as as well. Color didn't seem that important. We had the kids with us one day, and so to avoid casting we pulled spinners in about 8-10 feet and actually did quite well. Of note, there were several spots we fished where the side scan didn't show a lot of fish but we found a lot of fish. I suspect they are tucked down in the rocks, so don't be afraid to actually go fishing. Lot of guys driving around looking for fish with electronics that are missing really good spots to fish. If you suspect a spot will hold fish then fish it. [/QUOTE]
