Nice catch. Wish I get out and catch a good mess, polar vortexes and crippling sickness seems to be in sync with my off days....

Kman, if there are any creeks that hit the river, then try at the mouths of them. They might be in the middle of the main river, but just out from the creek mouths. They should be still deep, but getting ready to stage into the spawning areas. I watch my depth finder alot. I look for shad or baitfish, brush, or schools of large fish. The depth finder is the most useful tool I got. It's a cheap ($140) hummingbird, but once you get to where you can read it, it will double your fish intake. If there aren't any creeks, I would slow troll above the dropoff from 12ft to the deep water of 22-24ft. They may stage right at the transition from medium to deep water. It's still all about the baitfish right now in most places.
