fished on may 26, it was overcast but warming up. caught a few crappies on slip bobbers and minnows. wind wasn't too bad, we had a nice steady bite for a couple hours. overall a chill day, enjoying the lake with good company!

got back to ottertail on the 25th, it was cloudy but not too bad. used my new topwater lures and got lucky with 3 nice bass, 2-3lbs. felt good to be back on the water. went out with some friends, we had a good chat while fishing. good vibes!

man oh man, may 19 was a wash! heavy rain all day. went out for a couple hours but could barely keep the rod dry! caught one small perch but it wasn’t worth it. ended up just having a fishing day with no fish, but still enjoyed the rain with buddies haha!
