Got out on the water just as the sun was coming up and the remaining clouds from the cold front were clearing out. Nothing says "This is gonna be a great day fishing" quite like 25 MPH winds out of the Northwest. Even so, total numbers were pretty good.
Early on, I got several dinks and one keeper on a 4 inch junebug senko. Things really slowed down mid-morning until I switched to a small rapala minnow bait (F7). That produced a couple more that just crossed the 12 inch mark. Then, around 2 in the afternoon, I got three good sized fish (and lost a fourth) on a 1/4 ounce white spinnerbait with one colorado and one willowleaf blade. Each of these four (I got a decent look at the one I lost) was in the 2-3 pound range. The largest of the ones I landed might have been 3.5, but I don't have a scale, so who knows.
All of the keeper sized fish came off of wind swept points or secondary points with wood in the mid-lake area.
Good luck everyone.
