    Default Somebody tell me


    Are they still in the back of creeks,on the bank shallow?Have they moved back out??Only a slim chance I may get to sneak away for just a little while tomorrow,but if I do I’d like to know where to start.

    I'm wondering this myself. I have my kayak loaded up for my first trip tomorrow since January, I think. I'm also going to be fumbling around in new water closer to our new house. Probably going to be a struggle, but my plan is to fish until I find one.

    In my opinion they are everywhere. From not spawning yet and headed in to spawned completely and headed out. One at the time till you find the special spot then it's game on. So move fast and fish slow

    In times like this I try not to develop tunnel vision and fall into the trap of sticking with one area or technique. Instead I try a little bit of everything until I find something that works once I have located the fish. It's a challenge but all part of the game. Several years ago found them in a old strip pit off the main lake. Had never caught anything to speak of there before. Tried minnows and just about everything color of jig I had. Caught nothing until I tried a purple hair jig. Bingo!!

    Good luck everyone!!

    Exactly! In the spring you have to treat every day differently. Fish are in all stages and one will bite better on a given day. Shallow fish are more affected by bad weather but I would still spend some time on them just to see

    I thought this was the time even goobs like myself could catch them. Lol. This used to be the only time I fished for them and did way better than I am now.

    It's a good possibility you are now a lifer rather than a seasoner. Welcome to the sport and I'm sorry at the time...bahaha

    Believe they are scattered. Went Friday and found fish anywhere from3-10' deep. Still with eggs that were not ready yet! Believe the big fish hit it early now the younger class seems to be in the spot I fished on the Big G.
