It is simply amazing, when the temps were in the 80's it was hot and heavy action all day. Since the cold snap, they just vanished!

Decided to try BM for a couple of hours this morning since I had to go to Smithfield to do some corn & sunflower planting later in the day. Should have skipped the fishing and just worked. Close to a skunk as you can get. One crappie that was maybe 10" just before I decided to quit. Caught 3 bass (all were small) and one perch. Where I was catching shellcrackers and crappie last week.......NADA bite! When they disappear on me, they are really gone.

Agreed, It has to be this up and down weather messing with them..
I am surprised to see how bad fishing has been there lately. What the heck?

During the last 3 trips I made there (late Mar - present) it has been difficult for me to find fish. I think this time last year we were catching 70 - over 100, 9" crappie. I don't think we caught them all. I was expecting to catch 70 - 100, 10" fish this year.
Who knows?
