I've always been a 70°+ weather fisherman, but this year I want to try to start a bit earlier. So, when is a good time to do it without running for hours trying to engage at least single lethargic bass?
Good stuff Aux. I think early spring can be very location dependent. Some waters and places on those waters can be very hot and others are skunk city.
I used to suck at finding the early spring bite but have gotten pretty good at the warming flats on a sunny day bite and Lake Erie tributary river bite, although I haven't had time to hit that up this year yet.
Got out Saturday for a bit and Goby jr and I each caught 4 bass in a little over an hour. They weren't in on the flats thick yet and the big girls aren't in but I can't complain. Had only 3 weeks from last bass on the ice to first bass onnopen water!
