Warm water plus cold air created cool fog. I believe one of my local lakes is beginning to turnover. It was crystal clear last weekend, but now it's becoming a bit cloudy but no smell. The water temperature still seems somewhat warm, in the low to mid-50s at the surface. Fishing was challenging for me today; I only managed to catch one. It is hard for me to tell when my lake has started the turnover. Does anyone else know for sure when their lake has?

I had a case of Mondays at work, so I went fishing in the late afternoon. I had two hours before dark. In the first 45 minutes, I caught five 2+ or 3+ pounders for an over-10-lb bag. I caught five more after that. It was a great afternoon/evening on jigs!

The weekend is going well, I caught a limit today and a rainbow trout on a neko rig. Here are a couple of highlights. I love being on the lake. :-)

Got out for 2.5 hours to start weekend, water temp 56 degrees with previous week of cold front weather, today was high pressure and full moon yesterday. I got a few small ones and one 18.5" - couple on jig, couple on neko, I threw the swim jig & squarebill as well but no bites on them. Are you fishing this weekend?

Check this out. This smallie chased the lure to the surface on the other side of the boat. I was messing with it and it chased it all the way around the boat. It was like doing figure 8's with pike/musky except it was a smallmouth. Then, I held the lure just above the water’s surface. Smallmouth bass came out of the water to check out/get this bait. This was practice for a tournament so I was ok with not catching that day. I did go back and caught two in this area.
