Got to the lake at around 10:30am, trolling hot shot 70 on my pontoon boat near the fishing dock.
Action was nonstop for 40 minutes, and all of a sudden it just stopped. I packed up at around noon and rain started pouring when I left the parking lot. I guess the fish knew, wish I had a barometer in hand.

Kept 2 14" inches for dinner and I let the rest go

Sounds like you had a pretty good day. I hit up Cottage for the opener this year. The fishing then was pretty good but there were a lot of fish being taken from the lake so I imagine the action will slow down quickly. I even had to wait about 15 minutes on opening morning just to get a parking spot. Stayed on the water in my float tube for maybe a couple of hours with about a couple dozen to the boat and a whole lot of missed strikes. Hopefully I'll get back out there for a couple hours again early this Sunday morning before the fishing slows down too much.
