My daughter and i Just fished the white bass spawn in the detroit river in 20-30 kt wind—my daughter did get about 20 on clousers but switched to a spinning rod after the wind cranked up—we averaged 40-60/hr each on clousers ,half and halfs and crease flies and jigs and twister tails—and one a huge bobs banger—caught fish til your arms get sore literally.
Congrats on a great fishing trip and on getting to share it with family!
