Been since late spring when I last visited Cataract, but had a friend who needed fish for a family get together next weekend. Sounded like a good reason to revisit, so I told him last weekend if he wanted to go, I was in. Showed up around 3:00 and traffic wasn't bad at all. Lake looked halfway clear, and water temps were running about 78 degrees. Almost no wind, which actually made the bite a bit tougher than I expected, combined with the front that had gone through. Was a gorgeous afternoon to be out though. Took a little searching to put the pieces into place, but once we started to get them dialed in, things picked up. As usual for us, everything came on jigs, mostly tubes but some curlytails also. Fish were a bit deeper than I expected, with most coming out of 14'-18' of water, though we did find a spot or two shallower. Pulled off the water at dark with a double limit, and headed to the fish cleaning station.
