    Default thermocline


    I was on Greers today and it sure looked like I could see a thermocline. But it was deep. Keep in mind until I started pulling cranks last summer had no idea what a thermocline was. I thought the the thermocline would set up shallow and get deeper as surface water warmed? If so what am I seeing at 32 ' on my finder?

    Well it doesn't look like that on my graph but on Greers it does set up at about 30 feet and if it moves it's very minimal if at all.

    That is pretty much what the thermo cline looks like on my HB units, haven't been to Greers, but the other lakes I have been on look like that.

    Two good crappie and one eye. But I was only pulling two poles because my trolling motor is out of service so I was dragging two five gallons bucket to slow me don't enough to troll. Only trolled for couple of hour before dark Water surface temp was 74-76. Sure didn't think that thermocline started out that deep.

    Those termites in that downscan 22-30' are big enough to filet. The fish farther to the right could be walleyes.

    Stay after 'em

    Best info I ever received on thermocline was when CrappiePro told me a year back that the thermocline on Lake Conway was about 6" off the bottom
