Thanks Ross, yeah the wind was brutal yesterday. Fishing and weather were good on Tuesday.

[@clearlakeguideservice2509]

Completely agree!

Your not kidding about that east wind, learned the hard way not to launch out of Lakeport with a heavy east wind. Our boats take big waves fairly well but launching with 3 footers rolling in on you is no good :) Will give you the full story next time when you need a good laugh :) Great report as usual and keep on grinding!

I hate an east wind an Lakeport launch, you better get it right the first time! Can’t wait Rich!

Thanks for the report Ross. Not sure what I'm doing wrong but all I've caught are dinks. Went out on Tuesday morning and threw a buzzbait for about an hour, no blowup. Tried slow rolling spinnerbait, nothing. Switched over to a drop shot and caught 2 disks, one keeper size and one maybe 3lbs. Where have all the big ones gone?

[@clearlakeguideservice2509]

Hey Patrick. My personal experience here once the surface temp dips to the mid 60’s topwater is pretty much over. Others will disagree, that’s just my experience. If you can find shallow baitfish there are at least a few fish around.

I did catch the smallest fish of the year. We found some 8” bass and they were very healthy.

[@clearlakeguideservice2509]

Good to hear Joe, thanks!

Only if clear lake wasn't so windy

[@clearlakeguideservice2509]

It does have a tendency to get a little nautical at times!
