Bass Time

I have been negligent on posting but that does not mean I have not been out fishing. It has been a frustrating Spring as far as Rainbow Trout in our area, at least for me.  The late start extended itself to the trout lakes in my area.  However, the Brook Trout were biting.  It might have been issues with the stocking.  I only got one recent stocker and it was very small. 
They are putting in sterile Rainbows which are supposed to interested only in eating. They also might be easy to catch.  My bad luck may have something to do with the possible fact that there are few trout available.  I did not see very many rises and little on the scope. 
But now, summer is here and the bass fishing has been good but only on one lake that few people fish.  There are cabins on this lake but few occupants.  Nice modern, expensive cabins too.  They are starting to go deeper now.  Earlier you could cast right into shallow water close to the shoreline and bigger SM and LM were there.  Now they are mostly in 15 FOW.  But where there is a dropoff nearby, some are still close to shore.  It must be a genetic disposition to be close to deep water to escape from birds of prey which for the most part don't exist any longer except for the odd Osprey.
