    Cool April 18th

    Came up to the lake on Friday and spent the day working on the house, woke up this morning and thought I deserved a morning on the lake.

    I launched out of Anvil after my mussel inspection and started looking for lake trout. I kept looking and fishing here and there but didn't get a bite. Switched to kokes at 10:30 and was done by 11:00.

    Same gear as the week before.

    Lots of people out today, I didn't see much catching. The docks in Anvil are still not in.

    May try to sneak out and try for lakers in the morning

    That should be a good time, with some good weather.

    I did get out for a few hours this morning and finally got a mac, nothing giant but it sure felt good.

    Launched out of Lucerne, after my mussel inspection. The cleaning station is still wrapped in plastic.

    I mostly jig for them. But if you are trying for the pups I would try smaller cranks or spoons in blue or green. You don't need to run them very deep this time of year.
