Fished JPP today. Haven't fished it at all this year so didn't know what to expect. Overall it was ok I guess. We caught 6 keeper LM with the biggest being 4.20 and the smallest being 1.78. We had one keeper smallmouth that weighed 2.68 and a cpl drum and cpl shirt LM. We caught everything shallow. Basically we committed the whole day to fishing shallow. Fish were caught on a squarebill and football jig

Forgot to mention water level seemed well below winter stage and very stained. After fishing OH yesterday I assumed JPP would be very clear. Not so much. The mid lake section of OH yesterday was the clearest ive ever seen it

Anyone know any good spawning flats on Priest? I don't keep the fish and rarely can't sight fish on priest due to the clarity.

Everything really. The fish seemed very scattered. Most fish were caught on points leading into spawning pockets or banks that the wind was blowing into. All were caught in 2-4 fow. We didn't catch much when the wind was blowing really hard though
