Water temp was 42 and the air temp was warm today at 50 degrees. Water clarity was about 10 feet. I caught a few early on the dark sleeper, but I could tell they were wanting something moving faster and switched to the deep six. I fired up a school burning it as fast as I could reel and caught 12 really fast and 4 more over the next hour. I put two 3+ pounders in the boat

I fished the 168 s-waver for 2 hrs over brush piles, and finally caught a 4 pounder. Swimbait fishing is a great bite that takes patience, but it's fun

Air temp 40 water temp 49 water clarity 10 ft. Partly sunny with 7-10 mph wind. Smallmouth were suspended at about 10 ft in 15 ft of water. I couldn't get a reaction out of them with any but a jerbait. After the temp warmed up I caught a few on a keitech casting jig with a pit boss trailer in 15 ft of water.
