My first day here would stay uncomplicated and I would begin around shoreline cover, weed edges, and the first clean drop away from the bank before I started digging through the tackle box for a magic answer.
The exact-water list for Big Kitten Lake includes Black Crappie, Bluegill, Largemouth Bass, Muskellunge, Pumpkinseed, Smallmouth Bass, Walleye, and Yellow Perch; which keeps me focused on weeds, wood, rock, or docks for bass and points, breaks, and wind-pushed edges for walleye, and make the first hour useful instead of random.
If I had never seen Big Kitten Lake before, I would make the day about finding one repeatable clue instead of collecting waypoints, then I would confirm the current rules before the first fish ever comes over the side.
