Spent Thursday, Friday, and Saturday at HL, fishing from a smallish open boat. Got blown off after about an hour both Thursday and Friday, and fished for about 5 hours on Saturday. Had one hit on a chartreuse crystal bugger, one hit on a small panther Martin, and my pard had one hit on a Rapala. None were hooked. A few boats were catching fish, mostly with bait and pop-gear, but I'd consider it pretty slow fishing, which is quite typical for HL in the spring. One change from years previous is, the time limit for fishing has been lifted, so you can fish all night if you want, and if you have lights. Things should pick up as the weather and water warms, and the weeds get long.[mad]
