My buddy Doug and I went out to Offutt for a few hours of fishing. We trolled around the lake several times without a bite. The water temp was 41 degrees which may be a little too cold for trolling. Hopefully the temp will warm up in the next couple of weeks.

I was out there the day prior looking for bass. No bass to be found but I did end up catching about a dozen of those recent cutthroat planters right up under the trees on the west end of the lake. Caught them all on a 1/32 oz crappie jig with white curly tail grub cast up under the trees in about 2 feet of water. Trick was to swim the jig back quick with a few pauses in between. Easily caught 12 fish C/R all but 5 for a meal. After I got bored with that, I hollered at another boat- a father and young son and gave them a handful of the grubs. They immediately began to catch them too. Nice to be able to give a tip!

Cant wait for the bass bite to come on.
