The last week of fishing has been a rollercoaster. Warm weather ahs gotten the spring fever going, but clear skies and clear water have made fishing a little more about finesse. We lightened up the line and headed out into the harbor area. With recent reports of great catches, the harbor has been full of boats, which is usually one of the reasons for slower fishing. We came right into the pack of boats and gave jigging a shot for a solid 2 hours....with nothing to show for it. Switched gears over to trolling and had immediate success. The key was long leads behind the boat with short body cranks. 3 and 4 color lead core was key. Clear water means try to be quiet. The season has just started and our first trip out of the gate we grabbed a limit of the famous Milwaukee brown trout.
