Ambient temps were right around 60 degrees today in western PA. We've had colder weather the few days past along with good rains, so the neighborhood pond was high and muddy/murky. Fish took to feed very lightly.
At my neighbor Lee's pond, I caught 6 yellow perch with the largest being 8-9", and healthy. Lee's water was not muddy but was not clear either. YP hit on worms.
