Comments: WAS a beautiful day on the water, temps very unseasonably warm but...The fishing was on the slow side. It seems the trout don't really care much for shiners I caught 2 and lost 1 and had maybe 2 other hits. I located 2 spots where fish were present, but not very caring for either Shiners or dead herring. If I do get a chance to make it out again soon, I will check out bait shops for Golden shiners to see if that would make any difference.
