Water Temperature
53°
We started out at 0900 hours in 54 degree air temps. Water temps were at 53 degrees. We scouted multiple locations - shallow, deeper, muddy water stained water and clear water. Bluebird skies. Calm winds and mild chop. Mile roads on LSC. At about 1030hrs the bite turned on and while we were getting hit on swimbaits, they wouldn’t commit. Dragging a tube along bottom, on a tube jig, worked the best. Various colors were used but the green pumpkin was what they bit on. The NEW Shimano Mastiff FC in 12lb cast the 1/4oz tube jig a mile, was supple and not too stiff, no backlashes even casting into the wind. Seems very durable and disappears in the water. Much needed with these clear water areas we were fishing in 8FOW and you could see bottom. It’s still early pre-spawn, but the warming water is going to bring them in QUICK!
