    Default Winter bream


    Really surprised to find em very shallow and biting like wildfire!
    Bleached out ,pale and pulling like mini trains .
    45 outside, north wind 10 to 15 , in really muddy water 2 foot deep !
    Water temperature, fish and MY hands around 32 ....
    Started out after crappie, they were slow with bass in the mix .
    Broke out 2 nightcrawlers and my luck changed swiftly.
    By the time I realized who needed to be targeted it was too cold out there for me.
    Managed 16 before I said enough...
    Sure was cool to rip em so shallow this time of year
    Especially as a norther was blowing in so quickly...
    Go figure
    P.S. very consistent size range, no teeny ones , no monsters, just nice eaters , let em all go ...KABOOM

    I was shocked at the aggressiveness of the bream a couple weeks ago.
    The warm spell got them wound up.
    Caught some monsters on jigs. Gills and Red ear in about 2 ft of water.
    Mostly males. I guess they thought it was spring break.
    Now the deep freeze and it will be April before I see that bite again

    these fish were in the pretty sure earth worm for food mode, rained a lot and the lake came up 18 inches or so and it was muddy as heck , likely feeding on earth worms is my bet , did manage to ketch a pale faced 10 inch crappie with them in short water too
