Made it to Oakley yesterday for the first time this year. Expecting sunny and 72 deg, we were greeted by cool, cloudy and WINDY weather for most of the day. Used the low water ramp to launch the boat with no issues at all and were one of about a half dozen on the lake. Did not venture at all towards the dam but stayed right in the bay and south of there. Tried pulling plugs, tossing jigs and bottom walker presentations. Ended the day catching 12 trout (one holdover and 11 stockers) and 4 walleyes (14 and 15 inchers). Saw water temps form about 48 to 55 degrees depending on where we were at. Was great to get out for the first trip of the year. Planning on a return trip in a few weeks.
