I fished at Renegade this morning on my toon, with a sinking fly line. I picked up 12 cuts and cut bows with 3 hitting the 22" size. All were fat and good fighters. Water temp was 58* in the morning and rose to 62* by mid day. Most fish were caught in 25' to 30' depths. An olive woolly bugger worked best with purple also picking up some fish. In the afternoon, I moved over to Chicken East and caught 3 more before the wind and threat of a storm came over the lake. There were a lot of boats on the water but everyone respected each other and no problems came to pass. There were a lot of fish caught by boaters using power bait or worms. The fish are in the best shape that I have ever seen them in. I talked to Big Cat on the two way and he reported about the same results. I hope that the trend will continue for many years to come.
