In this March 28 Lake Toho fishing report, Captain Erik described a productive day built around offshore targets. An early shell-bar bite produced fish on Carolina- and Texas-rigged worms before slowing quickly. He later caught fish while covering pepper grass with a swim jig and slowly fishing a large worm, then found another productive brush-and-shell bite during the afternoon. These observations reflect this specific outing and should not be treated as current conditions.
