I havent fished Offutt in awhile and thought I'd give it a try. I got my wife to join me on the trip, even in the 20 degree weather! We arrived at the lake around 9:30 and fished till 12:30. I started trolling my normal 1.7-2 mph which is the speed I will usually hammer them at but I saw no action. I decided to slow things down since the water temp was so cold. We ended up finding action trolling 1.1-1.3 mph from the surface to 10ft deep. Ended up catching 3 nice fish from 14 to 17 inches. My wife out fished me catching 2 and the largest fish of the day. We had a good time but I think next time I'm going to show up around 11 if the weather stays this cold.
