Fished this morning for 3 hours and nothing. Water level is rising. With the rain coming the next few days the water level should be high enough that shore fishing will be pretty hard to do. Still some ice on parts of the lake. Looks like it may be close to Easter before we get any kind of substainable bite if than. Long range forecast aren't looking to promising with highs in upper 40's--- 50's and lows in the 30's. Water temp 37 degrees.
