Caught majority of them in 2 ft. water or less. Water temp 56 at north end. My 3 sons were having a blast catching them in such shallow water. Caught a few more in 5-8ft. Some males getting dark color,I guess starting to build beds. Anyway, had a blast. Forgot the camera on the camping trip. Hope to get some pics on our next outing. Just trying to share info. - Charles
