Cold , -5 , windy , slow in the morning   . Water mid 40 s ,
  Piles of pike up to 5 lbs , maybe 15-20 walleyes up to
 4 lbs ,  all males , all milting . This is a reservoir been
  closed for ever so no eaters  . Afternoon was beautiful , wind died .
  Great day ...pics , couple on my phone , but nothing
  to exciting . It's a little early ., but all equipment worked
   Flawlessly. All good .

Went and checked on a couple of the lakes today, they're open to angling, but not boating yet lol. By the looks of it it's going to be at least a week.
