Went to Trout again still no fish. I tried for a reaction strike with x-raps and spinner baits before switching back to texas rigged plastics. Targeted 2 to 10 feet of water. Water temp was up to 44. I bet around 48 fish will start hitting.

The connections I was using for braid to floro were crappy, so I found the "seaguar" knot on you tube. It is easy to tie and seems to be strong. I will test it out next week. If any one knows a better knot I'll try that also.

I foung a big slamander under my boat when I was loading it up. I wish the regs would allow us to use them. Last year I found a lot of small black one with a yellow stripe down the back.

On Monday or tuesday I think I will go to Sawyer, maybe get a smallie to bite!
