Fished the Susquehanna river around the Duncannon area. After a 4 day warming trend and the day time temperature in the high 70 degrees, the fish were up shallow on the front of grass islands. Aggressive jerks with a slight pause seemed to get the most bites. The jerkbait needed to be grinding bottom or close to it. I got a few bites when I would rip the lure free from a snag.
