Default great catching at the cong

fished saturday and sunday up the lake.we fished the shallow side and caught
shinners,bluegill,perch,crappie and yes some slime darts.it was great fishing for the 3rd and 4th of march.most of the fishing were taken on the bobber and jig but sunday the small husky jerks were catching a few fish too.most of the perch and crappie were small so ya had to weed thru them to put a good catch together.the colors we caught best on were yellow,pink and white.24" below the bobber and you had to work it back slow.at times it was cast and catch other times ya had to throw around and find them.all and all another good weekend on the big lake.

I think I saw you guys hiding in a the cove from the wind when I was driving around on Sunday.

Someone needs to fillet and grill that damn groundhog. Another 12" on the way. 70's in February was too good to be true.

That shallow water temp dropped so hard absolutely nothing would bite. Unreal. Couldnt even get a panfish to bite.

with a little help from the good Lord maybe we can get some sun shine.i'm sure
if we got some sun light that skinny water will warm fast.i will give the lake some time and start late morning and fish when the sun is at its highest.
