Wife and I went out and caught a few. She lost a nice one and caught a crappie. There seems to be all stages going on right now but I believe the spawn is just now really happening. I saw a buck bass on a bed and he wasn't acting like his girlfriend had visited yet. But seems to be a perfect storm of spawning activity about to happen. Bluegill, shad and bass are all doing their thing at the same time. Laydowns on lead in banks were the spot where we got the bigger bites. But this coming week it is supposed to get really hot so it might speed up the movement to deeper water. We will see.
