    I squeezed in a little panfish scouting this afternoon and found some fish ultra-shallow on a few of my favorite early season spots. Water temps ranged from 54-58 degrees in the shallow stuff. Pike, Bass, Perch, Bluegills, Pumpkinseeds, and Crappies were all out to play. Pink VMC Nymphs under a fixed float did the damage. Ten more days and then it’s Walleye time!

    A blast indeed.

    Water temps this morning in Walker bay were still 45-52 degrees, warming up fast though.
