Slow morning, decent afternoon.

Fished from about 10am til 5ish today, put in at Spring Creek and went as far as Music and back. Looking for places with a little wind but not so much that the 10 year old couldn't fish. Put about 25 in the boat, with Sid getting 9. Mostly smallmouth, no giants, half a dozen or so 16" keepers. The kiddo was fishing the Ned and a 3.3 keitch, I was mainly throwing a jerkbait looking for bigger fish and trying to leave the Ned fish for him.

It took a little while to locate some places to fish with the right wind conditions and start getting bites. I don't think we had more than one fish on before noon, but that could have been me getting the kiddo sorted out, and not the fish. All in all a good day, could probably have really smoked em on the stickbait if I had been fishing the windy windy spots, I just didn't want to dump the kiddo in the lake fishing the surf. All in all, it's still spring and it's still way fun out there...

Water temps 58-62 in a couple places at the end of the day, a little tiny bit of a green stain even on the main lake.

Good job, gotta keep the kiddos happy or they may not want to go with you the next time.

nice job. we were in spring creek on and off few days ago.  I did see water 58 up there and 62 closer to the marina.  Probably the wind pushing everything around.  I got my kids on fish using a drop shot, which was easier for them to handle in the wind.
