Got the mako skiff out for the first time this season. Fished for a couple hours in the Mud Creek area just north of Richland Creek in Dayton. Tried throwing traps and square bills with no takers. Changed over to a StikeKing bitsy bug on a spinning rod and slowed way down. Managed a small limit of keepers within an hour of changing presentation. All were caught on brush and rocks in 3-5 fow. Water temps were 62 in the creek and flats and 54 on the main lake.

Good fishing. Great when a back-up plan works out. Thanks for the report.
