I got onto Eloika at about 8:00 AM. I launched at Jerry's Landing (terrible weeds at the ramp) and turned north along the east side of the lake. I fished from there to about halfway to the slough. I managed to catch 4 keepers, but only invited 2 home to dinner. I caught 3 just on the outside edge of the dollar pads and one out in the main body of the lake. The first fish was taken on a chartreuse roadrunner with a chartreuse grub tail. The rest were caught on a Berkeley Triple Marguarita worm with no wait. I fished it real slow through the weeds letting it fall as deep as I could without getting snagged. There wasn't any wind to speak of and I got rained on very lightly for the first 3 hours, but it wasn't a problem. The bite lasted till about 10:00 AM and then shut off like a switch. Because it was on a Friday, I was the only boat on the entire lake. I liked that!
