On these larger bodies of water in central southern Indiana, its a slow process but they are starting movement up and so are the baitballs. Cool nites slows the water from getting warmer. Water 3 ft. Below surface is still super cold. Add 11 plus ft. of high water to the depth on Monroe and that also slows the water heating up. Add more rain in the equation. and that slows the spawn. Monroe, Lemon, Cataract, Mansfield, and Brookville, fish don’t spawn till starting in mid May thru week or so in June and it’s still April 24. Best way to fish Monroe is fish the brush and catch the fish in 6 to 10’ of depth but you just never know, if you find that warm spot, they can be more shallow. I was all over Lemon yesterday hitting all my hot spots, but they were in one 500 yd. bank in 60 degree water with most of the main lake 57 for me. There were probably other warm spots in the lake, but it’s hard to cover 1700 acres in a day and Monroe right now is about 3 to 5000 acres more water being flooded. If you google J R Guide service, Rusty is guiding crappie fishing right now and primarily hitting Middle Fork and using minnows on jigs and under bobbers a lot hitting the brush and using a “hit and run” method to find fish till he finds them. He gives fishing reports and has a couple of pics. That is not to say, he also will at times, head up the North Fork also.
