54 degrees to be exact. couldn't believe it Thursday morning when I put in.
No fish shallow, fished most of my shallow water favorites without a bite.
Ended up trolling jigs in about 22' of water & caught about 15 in two hours.
Most were full of eggs & white as a new bed sheet. Water did warm up to @
58 by the end of the day. Went to Hickory Friday morning & water was 63 degrees at 7:30 am, 67 by the afternoon. Did a little better at Hickory, some on banks & some trolling.
