Thanks GRDA, dealers, VIP Day Spa (Patricia, Monkey Island), Owen (window cleaning / power shades), Williams Guide Service.
Water
Cold rain then 70s/30s/80s swings; enough inflow to mud upper lake — mud line at mouth of Honey Creek (stays unless hard west wind pushes it in). Kansas/Missouri mud via Neosho/Spring — still fishable.
Rivers
Swimming minnows, Lucky Bugs, Scrounger + Lucky Bug, crankbaits, Tie2 and cable-guard heads popular for whites and Crappie.
Main lake
Haydn Paddlefish above Sailboat; Crappie trips Sailboat–Shangri-La roaming coves pre-spawn on Live Scope — Desert Hero Lucky Bug on ⅛ oz white/pink (often 2"; Jeff prefers 2½" on ⅛, sometimes bites the tip shorter). Blues still shallow ≤10 feet on flats/island points — Mark Maguire: if you’re begging them, move. Bass boats out; little posted. Below-dam bite building with generation.
