It was just about what I expected. A few boats around, water temps 47-49, and slow fishing. I fished for a couple of hours in the PM, flipping a small black rubber skirted jig with a 4" hook tail worm trailer. I had two strikes, landed one 14" LM bass and lost the other. The cut at the boat ramp at Access 1 on the S shore was blocked with a mass of tumble weeds, but I was able to force through them with my 24v electric motor.
Things will pick up when the water warms a bit. Someone should get into them tomorrow in the tournament. I found the 49 degree water back close to shore in about 2’ of water.
Thanks for the report SmartWeed.
I’m going to try ity a little on this coming Saturday. Gonna take my new (well new to me…) bass boat out for the first time. Maybe we will get a little warm weather this week. Water in the high 40’s… brrrrr… gonnna take a while to warm up…
New bass boat?, awesome[;)] I got a 12’ starcraft check it out in the misc fishing boats section. Let me know when you might be going to Magic.
Hey brother Mike!
How have you been? Glad to hear you got a boat. I know you were wanting one!
I’m thinking about trying Magic in May sometime and trolling for those big 'ol trout.
I’ll get some pics posted of my boat too. It’s a 17’ Nitro. If you are down in my neck of the woods, after it warms up a bit , we should try Lowell again. We can take my boat.[;)]
That’s sounds awesome. Be sure and let me know when you come to Magic!
