If I am reading him right, he is talking about the thaw front.
fish in our lakes up here seem to be locjawed shortly after the ice goes off the lakes. that is not realy the case, it is that the thaw brings down a lot of food from rivers lake edges bird droppings on top the ice from the winter along with dead bugs that came out on winter days only to meet untimely dimize.
point is for about 3-4 weeks after the thaw it is almost imposible to get fish to strike. its like after your third slice of pumpkin pie on turkey day all the fudge in the world wont get you to budge untill youve made a little room...
the reason I suggested to target shallow lakes and cannals is because the waters are wormer so feeding fish there are more active and will go poo sooner after thier taisty morcles and will be more willing to take another offering...
so we could actualy say the fish are having a thanks giving feast that cant be beat...[
