Got to the boat ramp to a nice smooth glass lake. As soon as I put the boat in the water the wind started blowing. Fished in the wind as long as I could then moved out of the wind but to do that I'd have to get back in the truck. The wind will follow you when your fishing. Living in the n.w. I have mastered the trolling motor to keep you on the fish! I did get one small guy down by the dam 1.5 he was hungry enough to hit the 10" grape shad I let him go so I could go.
