another overcast day and the fish were biting! caught 2 nice stripers, pretty big! i used a white jig and it worked wonders. weather was a lil warm, but the wind kept it nice. even had a good time chatting with some other anglers out there.

what a beautiful partly cloudy day! took the boat out and fished near the coves. caught a bunch of bluegill and a few bass. used a mix of crankbaits and live worms. if you ain’t fishing in the Ozarks in spring, you’re missing out. it’s just awesome!
