I'm taking the kayak down to Council Bluff Lake Saturday for Redear. They have bluegill there also, but redear are much bigger.

That would be the spot. I have not been in a couple of years, but they should still be good. Full moon coming up, they should be on beds.

Im also wanting to get some warmouth this year. Ive only caught 2 in my like, both from joachim. Anyone have a honey hole for warmouth?

Shallow rocky banks near shore. I fish crickets, jigs, or rooster tails.
