Fishing Report June 13, 2012

Been out on the pond several times since last report. ML lake conditions change with every weather event.

Last week we had stable, dry and hot weather (air temps upper 80's) which water temps shot up to 72 deg and rising. This last Sunday a pretty severe cold front with winds in excess of 20mph came throught the area.

Water clearity is good and the tanic stained water is now only confined to the areas with creeks and runoff ditches. Lots of slimmy green algea covering the reefs. A mayfly hatch is in progress..so far not that bad.

Yesterday had a guide trip, when we launched at around 7:30 air temps were a balmy 48 deg and water temps had fallen over 10 degrees to 60-61 degrees. Pretty dramatic change in just 30 hours. Caught about 25 smb mosty males. Had a couple 20" ers..but bigger fish are still recovering from the spawn..any time not they should be showing up. I think the cooling water temps will hopefully delay the algea bloom which usually happens around this time each year.

Been seeing more bass boats and bassers chasing brownies that ever before.
