These nite temps got em' confused?

I've been hearing reports: Lakeview, Horsehoe and Sardis. The word I'm getting is that some are holding on the outer edges of trees, edge of canals, close to shallow points etc., but no real spawning beds on the "usual places". The guys I've been talking to say they're working hard to scratch out a mess and very few on the same spots. More minnow action than jigs.

These 40 degree nights have em' spooked?

I fish during the week to avoid "some of the crowds" and it looks like we may have warmer nights on the way. Personally, I love the thump of jigs so this time of year always suits me in spite of the spring fever folks. I'm ready to get back at it next week assuming the winds and temps hold off.

Thoughts?

They are only spooked on the days I am fishing, lately....every other day they are on fire. Everyone should call me the night before to see if I am going the next day.

That's my story and I am sticking to it.

You only know how to catch them COLD weather fish.:D If its too warm for insulated duck huntin gear, then its too late.:p

With this baby you can get a limit under any conditions.(make sure you stay at least a 100 yds. from it while in use)

Jimfish has just invented a sho'nuff limit-getter. As your uninvited business manager in this deal, I just took the pic and applied for the US patent. It'll either make us lots of money or lot's of time in the pokey.:eek:

Sure fire mr jim!

England and I have both suggested dynamite in the last week...he!! I even used a minner a couple of times...that is sacreligous:eek::eek:

yea I'm getting pretty tired of hearing the ole "we wore 'em out right here yesterday!"

I like Mr. Jim's rig but I'm wondering if maybe I should rig that C&C style so that I could get two "jigs" in the water!!

I wanna place an order for about four of those rigs Mr. Jim. Looks like I need a few.

Ya'll better not let Cane Pole see that rig. That'll tear up a stake bed in a hurry. :)

Wannabe...

mrjim speckhunter told me to check out your sure fire way to get the limit I have been having trouble getting, looks like a heck of a way to get your limit, may have to try it soon, good stuff

Way to show'em Mr. Jim , that's what I enginuity.....

no sense in trying to be fancy......pull the pin and let er rip.....

wonder if that would work at Arkabutla??

I tied up a few of Mr Jim's sho' nuff' rigs this week. It took some getting used to. I did learn that if you want to clear out an area, you just begin tying on those sho' nuff' fish gitters and all the folks within blasting distance have a tendency to scramble.....he..he.
