Thread: Smoked boys!

What ever was going Thursday, im not to sure. First thing in the morning, sun barely up, water temp 42. The plan was to start out in there normal spawning areas, then work my way back into deeper water if nothing happened there. Well, it was one of those magical mornings. glided in to my first past, pithed my jig, and thump! wow! Only 3ft down close to cover, two more fish and i had a pattern. I had a feeling theses fish would be big this year but had know idea they would be this healthy. Come home and weighed 10 fish, combined total, 13 pounds, those were just the larger ones. Weird though. 42 and they were hitting like the water was the upper 50s. Great day!

Today though, really blowed, pun intended. this morning first light, water temp 46, and no takers, anywhere, place was like a ghost town. Didnt stay long to try and figure much out thoguh, 30mph gust, is not fun fishing in a 12ft Jon boat, would of stayed if had a larger craft, still a beautiful day!
So, did you all do any good today?? What do yall think was the difference between this morning and yesterday morning? i would of imaged they would of been on fire this morning, the was not even close to being up early this morning. only thing i noticed was the water temp higher, should of been a good thing, and the water a little bit clearer, still some what cloudy though. I did not try minnows btw, i just dont use them anymore. Mainly, i feel more accomplished when I do set into one. Well yall have good one, then a better one.
