Fish bum rush the shore.

[rkj76]

This past week lake Wichita caught fire. I was catching them anywhere from 6.5' to 1". This lake is super shallow. You can't find a spot over 9'. I'm not sure what they do in the winter. I can never find them when the water is cold, but in the last week they decided to bum rush the shore. Found some really nice fish. Males had very little color to them. The females eggs were tight, and no where near close to dropping. Pre dawn bite has been the best.

They are likely getting ready to go fast in a shallow lake like that . And it’s likely they might be already doing it in the wee hours after lots of sunshine during the day .

Tight eggs suggest weeks
Weeks it it'll take because they do not speed rate gestation
I have three holes here that are shallow and theyproduce the same every season
15-17" males this Sunday,femalesup to 19" still very tight with row
Another two limit sack confirms the pattern here anyway
Yes,very tight to the rock bank smashing like savages
