Used the public boat ramp on Rt. 250, which was in good shape and has plenty of parking. Tappan Lake was a balmy 84 – 86 degrees as we fished yesterday under sunny skies and light breezes. Found fish up tight to wood on wind blown areas. Found fish in 5 – 7 feet of water. Saw lots of shad and minnows popping around weed clumps, but no bites. Nothing around docks. Caught them with blue gill colored crank baits and 3/8 ounce spinner baits with chartreuse & white skirts. Bass slapped at frogs, but never committed.
