The north wind turned the water over up north. The surface temp was 42.9 in the 00’s. We ended up fishing the pier heads this morning. Plugs on 3 & 5 color cores took all our fish but one. We had 5 bites on our wire divers with 10″ Spin Doctors and Big Water Meat Rigs. We only put one of them in the boat. A 10″ Dark Green White Crush Spin Doctor/Froggie Big Water Meat Rig out 35 on a low wire went 3 times. Our best plug was a Dreamweaver Natural Glow Cut Plug on a 3 color core. The bite was good early, but when it died – it died.
