Went out on Sunday and again on Tuesday. Water temps in the mid 40's to the upper 40's on Tuesday. Generally speaking the fishing in the Main river has slowed. Caught 35 fish on Sunday in 4 hours and only 15 in the same amount of time on Tuesday. I did catch a monster Perch a small bass and a pickerel on Sunday which I never count on my tally. Tuesday the wind picked up and made it really difficult to control the boat which got frustrating after a few hours.

For some reason the prespawn when fish are starting to spread out is always difficult for me and I never seem to do that good until the pattern levels back out with the males going shallow and the females stacking at the dropoff. It is funny I saw a boat go by with 3 little kids and a father and thought I recognized them. Checked the facebook page of a local sportshop and saw that same group featured saying they had a great day on Sunday and holding a stringer of beautiful fish, lol. My excuse is they were using minnows.
