Good Friday, Good Action
 

Hit the shed yesterday for the first time this year. On the water around 7, only one 1 other trailer in the lot. I recently got a lowrance elite 4x finder and havnt had a chance to use it so I spent a little while gettin it set up and messing with the settings. Air temps where high 30s, water was 48/49.

Found some good action throughout the morning. Ended up with one pickerel around 20", one fat lmb, and 3 smallies. Biggest went a hair over 16". Most were caught on jerkbaits except one of the smallies hit a size 15 panther Martin. :D Also, one of the smallies was my first "sonar" catch. Identified him on screen, casted to him, and bagged em. Good to know my sonar won't be a useless ornament, lol.

All in all, def not bad for a chilly, somewhat breezy spring morning........

Nice lookin fish...good mixed bag..thanks for the water temp info

Re: Good Friday, Good Action
 

Nice catches. I thought for sure this was gonna be a Shad report, and as much as I love Shad, it's good to see other fish hitting bait hard there now. In 3 weeks I'll be doing a 2 day river float, it's good news to hear the bite is on.
