Staying on a private island just east of North Twin Island (central section) Will advise when I get back. Heard the water is way up. Looks like a big warm up is comming right before we get there. Hope it doesnt turn them off,

A big warm-up is what they need!!!!
The water temp just hit 70 yesterday, here on the Big V.
Fishing has been slow.

Fished outta Jaegers North Shore Lodge last week and did pretty good. boated 8 with a couple 47's being biggest. Lost a few including Scotty Jaeger losing a giant outta the back of my boat. Didn't see big numbers but most of the ones we did see were in the mood to eat. Bring your boatside skills cuz you will need them. Talked to a couple guys fishing outta Herbies place and they were moving (and catching) some big fish too. Flashers and blades were what we used mainly and fish were moving all parts of lake we fished.

Weeds are awesome considering late spring and high water. To the top most everywhere

Thanks for the update, sounds like a typical week up there. Boat side technique is means everything up there. 70% of my fish are caught on the eight on that lake.
