On the water around 8:30am after AZCA meeting and off by 1:30. Fished with my parents on Salt end caught 7 crappie and lots of b@ss all around 20ft of water. Released the smaller 11" one and kept 6 for parents' fish fry. No luck on the front long poles fishing vertically my parents were schooling me with basic jig setup so I switched to jigs and had some better luck. Water temp 61 and up to 62.7 by the time we left - no wind all day until it started picking up around 1:30. Seems like now is prime time to fish for spawn at least on Salt side.
Also, headed up to first-come first-serve camping at Windy Hill Fri night - nearly all single sites were taken in all open loops by 6pm. We found one in Jackrabbit but wow it's getting busy there. I'm wondering if Schoolhouse was more open.
