The April full moon saw a small redear spawn in central Arkansas. A few bluegill were starting to mull around the shallows as well. Then we had a cold snap and they all moved out. The May full moon has been unreal around here. Unfortunately for me, I have had to work the last 11 days in a row and have to work tomorrow as well. We are relating the boat trails on my home lake and have hired a contractor to cut stumps in the trail under water. After an 11 hour day of physical work, it is tough to get motivated to fish sometimes. Last weekend, the local bait shop sold out of crickets, red worms, wax worms, and even minnows. They just got restocked today. From the talk I have heard and by how full the parking lots have been, anglers have been wearing out the bluegill and redear around here. I guess missing the action due to work is just as bad as missing the action due to crappy weather.
