Met some friends, (nonyak) we all have them, at the lake . Head wind white caps and 2 hrs later I made it to the other end where the biting fish hang out . Water temp 44 degrees. Everyone was catching mostly ripping rappalas . Hard to do unless you have peddles. I went to the mouth of the river anchored in the middle used worms and crickets between me and friends we caught and released around 40 fish kept everything that swallowed a hook. Big fish of the day was 19". flat ass calm on the way back , no tail wind .

That looks like a fun day. The last time I was there the wind was just smokin'.  I have never been back in where you guys were. It looks fabulous. I wonder about topwater big browns at dusk.
