Left work a little early and met Mike at Riverpark. Fished from about 3:30 pm to almost 8:00 pm. Boated 24 fish, bass and google eye and missed many more as the bite was very subtle. We had one fish that was in the 3 to 3 1/2 range but most were small but a lot of fun. As I said the bite was usually very light, you wouldn't feel anything, the line would just start moving so I'm sure we were late on pulling the trigger on many fish. It was sunny and warm (air temp mid 80s). Water flow was 7K so not too much and clarity was very good. Water temps were 71 to almost 73. I suppose the majority of fish (bass) have spawned and it seemed like most of what we caught were males probably guarding fry. Most productive bait was some type of finesse worm and the best color was green pumpkin. Presentation was shakey head or t-rigged and slowly bumping on the bottom. Most fish were caught close to the water edge although the google eye tended to be further out. Since it was a sunny day and we started with a lot of sun on the water the fish seemed to hit best in areas of shade. I always enjoy fishing with Mike, we had a good time and are mindful that it is a blessing to be able to be out on the water enjoying fishing and fellowship. Everyone be safe.
