Wow was Sunday a beautiful day on the lake. The fish were more than cooperative as well. Seemed like every boat I saw was setting in shallow water drowning minnows and catching the occasional small fish. Even though it felt like spring, its not spring yet folks. The fish were staged in 7-10 feet of water in preparation for the spawn. We found them related to ledges off the major spawning flats and they were hungry.

Water temp was holding at 50 and the water was slightly stained. It was a “John Deere Green” colored jig that got it done.

This time of year you have to use your electronics to find the fish then adjust your presentation to catch them.
