Water temps were up close to 60, which is a drastic change from 45 last wednesday. shallow water heats up quick. no females were caught, so at least here in oxbow land, males may start moving up to prepare the beds.

I caught all my fish on some of skiptomylu's green/chartreuse hair jigs tipped w/ crappie nibbles. my partner caught em on a jig tipped w/ a minnow. neither pattern dominated though. We were fishing from 2-3ft of water around brush & cypress trees. it's getting close!
Hey Randy, speaking of your neck of the woods...The fellow we were talking to said that he heard a report of a 3lber coming out of Mound Lake. You holding out on us???:D And you're right, it won't be long now!
