Some fish were really tight lipped today. I saw several bass in shallow waters that were on beds protecting eggs. Plenty of sunfish in the shallows in case your looking for panfish action. Docks yielded some action for bass. Large weed flats were tough to dissect in the winds. A few pike were found. Natural colored baits worked best for me in the clearer spring waters. Senkos in 5" were a good fit to entice shallow water fish. 1/4 ounce jigs cast over weed flats yielded a few bass. Larger 3/8 sizes are a good idea for 12 feet weed lines. The spawner version of a Kizewgill jig from SuperK is an excellent choice for this time of year.
Fish on&tight lines !

The spawn is on. If you know what to throw & where to look, bass fishing can be incredibly productive this time of year !

It’s too soon to tell how much the immigration crackdown is to blame.
