Cold Temps On Deep Bite

[Jason Essary]

Anyone have any ideas on what these cold temps will do to the deep bite. Thoughts of going sunday and was wondering if the temps might drop the water temp some and kill some of the shad, or is tablerock still to warm?

Or might run over to upper bull to give those a try?

I wouldn't think this cold spell could warm 43-45 degree water down to mid 30's that quick. These cold spells just aren't that long.

Phil is right. It will take a longer cold spell to drop the water into the 30's and produce a good shad kill. There may be some areas in the backs of major creeks and up the rivers cold enough but the overall temp will likely stay warm and the shad will likely move to warmer water closer to the channel.

thanks guys, might head to bull then to try the mixed bag thing. Anyone know if they are still catching them or did they turn off. reports are before this cold front came through.
