cold water, cold air and colder front coming but fish must eat.. this loner smally came right up from about 25-30 feet to eat the jig and minnow imitation on the clear water Stockton lake. Truth is I was hoping for some walleye but this was a welcome fight

The ice just came off the lake and we had a good shad kill. Fishing will be tough for a week or so then it will be game on. I would be concentrating on a jerkbait or a rig bite. Make sure your jerkbait sinks slowly for more bites. Try to target secondary points just off the main lake for your best bite. Arig fished over brush and main lake points will also produce fish.

Fish have been easier to catch fishing right above the brush. Tried a lot of baits only consistent bite was on a swimbait. Not a lot of big ones but more bites. Long casts and slow roll the swimmer just touching the tops of the brush.

The fish at stockton are really spread out they are starting to split between the brush and the ledges.The a rig is still the main player i would keep it locked in my hand all day to look for those better than average bites.

Fished on 3/13 at Stockton. Water temp was 40-44 up in the mouths of the rivers. Only caught 7 fish all day with 1 decent fish close to 4lbs. The jerkbait was the best bait and the bites all came on the pause. Caught 1 on the jig and the a rig as well. Overall it was nice weather (although windy) and a good day on the water.
