Lake Travis 4/22/2012

Finally got to get out on the boat after 6 months; the low water from the draught kept my marina from launching the boat.  Consequently, I missed the Fall and Winter fishing seasons.  The water temps have come up from the high 50s of the winter to the low 70s; this means fish are beginning their spawn and some of them are hungry.

Anders and I both got out there early Sunday morning and fished until 2:30.  We caught 5 fish in total, but the surprise of the day was to catch 2 nice sized stripers on the umbrella rig at the same time.  I may have had 3 on originally because one jig and leader were completely missing from the rig.  Hopefully the bite will continue long enough to catch a few more.
