The water at Heber's yesterday [late morning] was very very muddy and I was worry that the lake would be bad. But once out in the lake, the water was not bad [4" to 8" visability].
The farther south you go, it gets to 12" plus.
The lake was glass calm for the first hour or so but by mid afternoon the winds were up to a steady 12 to 15 mph. By 5 PM the winds were felt like near 20 mph and I was really bouncing in my small boat.
There was a big rain storm over by the ship channel.....so I headed North. I found birds twice that held some trout, but mostly dinks.
I caught a 5 dozen limit of crabs, but had to move around some to find a spot where I caught them steady. Took me almost 4 hours.
I only caught 4 keeper trout......but crabs were my gold for the day.
Glow and char.....sand eel jr worked good today. I had lots of good strikes, but they quickly got off.
