We chased musky yesterday but only saw a few pike and no eaters. Forecast said cloudy but it was all sun for most of the morning/afternoon. The river temps are warming up a little, finally.

I have been noticing several fish “surfacing” over the past couple of weeks and most looked like trout or bass from a distance. I finally got to see a couple of those “surfacers” up close yesterday and they were suckers with lampreys attached. They appeared to be trying to shake the lampreys off their head/gill area. As they broke the surface, they would roll and expose the lamprey side of their body to the air. Not sure exactly what was happening but I do not remember seeing this many suckers with lampreys before.
