I'd bring 3 rods right now:

- Rattle Trap

- Colorado Blade Spinnerbait

- Flipping Jig

The water temp will still be in the 40's but they don't go too deep there. You just have to cover water, it's fairly silted in so there are a lot of large flats with limited structure or cover. These are the areas to hit with the trap, I'd probably keep the boat in 5-8' of water paralleling the bank about a cast length out.

The other two baits are for whatever cover you can find along the main lake or within about the first 1/3 of the creek arms off of the main lake.

Throwing a Squarebill or Spinnerbait along the rip-rap wouldn't be a bad idea either.

Good Luck!
