Water was calm and in the mid 60's but after a couple of hours, the lake was producing white caps. Fished 4 brush piles catching 42 and keeping 21 for the frying pan. Checked several sunfish areas where I caught them in the past, but nothing was there. Left the lake at 10:30.

Gar - I read an interesting article regarding lake fishing for bluegill. Author was a fishing guide on a lake up north on Michigan (I believe). He said bluegill can be found near weed beds with soft bottom pre spawn. One of these days, I'll figure it out.
