Kayak Trip Report, Ditto Landing

I fished the back slough to the North of the boat harbor at Ditto today from 11:00AM till about 3:00PM. The fish were scattered following the shad schools, but agreeable. I spider rigged four poles with 1/16oz Marabou jigs about 12 to 15 inches deep in 24 to 30 inches of water. I kept half a limit and returned three slabs that were 15 inches and a couple dozen short fish. I had some minor excitement with a 5 pound bass that took a few minutes to get in. The water was 46 degrees when I put in and had warmed to 48 by the time I left. The water was fairly clear for that slough, with visibility of about 12 inches. Nice short trip.
