Hope your right but it was just the Catfish , Crappie fishing has been better. The moon and cooler weather have effected the area they used .My best bite most days has been later, but I don't spider rig. The fish have been slower to get tight on wood till sun gets hot. I think most folks were not doing anything different from what they did on hot summers. Some days even the Catfish bite better in mid afternoon ?:dono

Problem is now that the fishermen will be jumping OUT of the boats. :)

I sure been missing some 100deg weather and higher electric bills. I just don't know how those electric suppliers are gonna stay in business with temps like they've been.

My AC unit broke down just thinking about what's a comin.

Heat has been heating up the fishing this yer...Not sure why....But one thing I do know this will change on a dime very soon.

might have to break out the sport brella!!!!!!!!

Gonna have to get me an inverter and a fan to make a breeze under the Sport Brella.

Bring on the heat. Summer is finally here.

Definitely need an umbrella or some shade now! It is a strange year though. Usual patterns not working as great. Spending a lot more time trying to figure out what the fish are doing for sure. Anyone got a great pattern that is working.........share if you can.

Last few years, the pattern for me has been shade and lots of it. This year I have had to find the deeper holes where a thermocline has set up. They are still on visible cover, but the specific type doesnt seem to be as important this year. Just find the deeper trees, put it in their face and wait.....and wait....AND WAIT.....then BAM!!!

Who cares , we are just have'n fun. Post away and the heck if they can't take a little heat , even more so the ones who dish it out!:Rofl Just don't get too rough on folks and no name calling.

Thank you for the post. Anyone else have a summer pattern that has been successful this year? Anybody having any luck spider rigging!

Oops that was a question. What's your summer method?
