1st scouting report
The weatherman said early thunderstorms, looked outside at 6 am & thought heck it's the long weekend, so stayed close to home & went to check if anything was happening yet with the speck bite. Started out with a broken rod tip, then both double jig set-ups were tangled like a birds nest, casting another rod, line caught at reel, snapped off & sent a road runner into the lake. That's right, what else could go wrong? 1/2 hr later all rods out trolling along, pole doubles over & bam a 14"er, all frustration gone & didn't have to catch another fish, but 15 would be the total for the morning. They were liking the crappie magnet body in pic...surface water temp 84 F & caught around 4 fish in each corner of the lake, so no concentration of fish in any 1 area....floaters in the entrance side of lake, along with 2 buoys to warn of shallow flat area placed by FWC, however, water's plenty high now. Never did rain & was quite pleasant due to cloud cover til' 11 am, then the heat drove me home.......Time to watch the NOLES!!

Some fat and happy fish. Nice to see lake Washington starting early.

I'm thinking about going somewhere and giving it a shot....struggling to get motivated and make a decision.
Got plenty of projects to tinker with on the mud boat considering gator hunt starts wednesday and early duck season in a couple weeks, but itching to fish too.
