Didn't go out today. The forecast of snow and rain scared me so since I have a tax appointment tomorrow I scrambled getting that finished, worked with the hounddog a little and filled out forms for insurance. 

 

Tommorow.??

Well, might as well add some details to Royce's pics...lol

With the longer days and warming weather pattern this week.  We have started to see more quality fish moving shallow to take advantage of the food and cover skinny water provides. Panfish start to move out from the basins during late winter to feed on the insects that become more active as the days get longer and warmer. There is also more oxygen available due to the weeds starting to grow again.  

 

We have been finding more quality fish showing up in the 8-12 ft areas close to the greenest thickest weed available.  Insect type baits  like the p3 spug, the chigger fry and mayfly rigged on 3-4mm tungsten jigs have been working best.

Being the sun popped out for a while today, I figured it was a good sign that maybe some fish would bite. I wasn't wrong, kinda....?

If we could only get some stable, warm weather? These up and down temps the last two weeks has made finding a consistent bite a challenge.  One day the fish will be shallow and biting good, and the next they pushed back deeper and aren't as willing to bite as well.

I have been taking advantage of the days when the wind lays down, and the rare occasion when that bright thing in the sky comes out...lol.   Been finding lots of smaller fish in the local boat channels and shallow back waters.  The best bays have been the ones with deeper pockets within the bay for fish to take cover during cold snaps. Have really only found a few large crappies in the old traditional early locations. Starting to wonder if their going to move in this yr to feed , or if they will just show up close to beds, as some of the male crappies are already turning darker.
