Water Temps 42
Water Clear

Lots of floating weeds, almost unfishable in my fav. spots. Seems much worse this year than last.

Fished 5pm until 8pm.

Landed a fish just pushing 42, after pulling off weeds nearly every cast. Nice weather to be out tonight.

You are not lying about the weeds! I was out there tonight and it was pretty bad. The whole northern end of the lake was pretty much unfishable. The S breeze did seem to push a lot of them to the north though so the southern end wasn't as bad.

Thanks for these reports, Austing is aggravating when it gets like that. I hope to visit this weekend and play the winds, hoping some decent areas are fishable. It seems like the whole bottom of the lake up-chucks sometimes and leads to this, there shouldn't be as much boat traffic chopping things up like in summer.

I can't remember seeing it this bad before for so long, but it just requires a little more patience..

Thanks for this report. My original plan for today was Austin, but after reading this I decided on Thornapple. Thornapple was looking nice, and I enjoyed my trip. Glad I didn't have to deal with the floating junk.
