Tale of two cities this weekend. Saturday was brick &$$ cold and the bite was slow. Water temp was still hovering in the 53 degree range but the lake was 2 ft lower. Took some time to locate the fish but once we located them we had just enough action to want to stay longer. Boated 18 and took home 16. Quality was still up but not as good as last week. Never got into the white bass either. Fish and bait moved from the mouth of the creek to about half way back. Still hanging around the channel but now in the 17-20 ft range. I think I was fishing a little too high in the column. Next week I will change up and use 1/16 instead of 1/24 jigs to get deeper without letting out more line. Went out Sunday for a few hours but never could get on the fish. Only boated 5 low quality fish. Crappie had pulled out and the hybrids moved in. They were everywhere. Still better than being home. Pics are from Sat. For me the bite is better very early before the sun comes up good or on overcast nasty weather days.
