    Water temp as of tonight at 6 pm. was 53.5 and I expect it to get a little bit warmer with our awesome warm-up this week and including two days at 70° (yee- haw). Catching some healthy Smallmouth with a fair amount of Largemouth mixed in. Fishing a 3" keitech /Sexy Shad on an owner underspin w/brass Colorado fairly slow. Fish are located around dock pilings that sit in 6 - 8' feet. Throughout the day they can be caught right up next to the bank or out in front of the boat docks. Follow up baits, rattling Ned (craw), 2.5" craw wiggle wart, and a few on dbl willow Sexy Shad spinnerbait...Tight Lines to all
