Capt. Jason Wagenfehr fished Todd A. and his group of 4 other wade fishermen. The weather has warmed up considerably from earlier in the week. Our tide levels were back up to nearly normal due to some stiff southeast winds and water temps are back in the mid 50′s.

On our first wade we targeted a windward back lake shoreline. Throwing a variety of baits from TTF Flats Minnows in plum chtse to Pink Corky Fatboys, the group found steady action in the first two hours of wading. A muddy bottom with scattered grass patches seemed to be the best structure. Water depth was about 18-24″.

That first wade proved to be the best of the day as we tried two more areas with similar structure and only boxed a couple more fish on each wade. We ended the day with 12 trout and 9 reds. 5 of the better trout ranged from 20-24″ so I expect to see some even bigger fish in the next few weeks.
