Fishing 12-7

Went yesterday the water was glass calm in the morning could not buy a bite. The afternoon salvaged it I ended up with 5 crappie and 2 walleye on minnows and jigs around State Park. Water temp has really dropped since last week 43 to 45 on graph. I hope it doesn't freeze over this winter.

Good trip! WOW You are right. The water teperature has dropped a lot! I echo your concern about freezing over. Next week looks even colder then this week. There is even a chance of snow on Saturday. If the weatherman is right the water temperature will continue to drop rapidly.

That is more of a drop than I had thought. I was there on Friday in the L and B Sac arms and found 50° water.

With the prediction I think I'd better get there before the weekend. The fish I caught were already quite deep and may even be deeper by now.

As usual, I think you are right on Dutch.

It was 40.4 degrees in the very back of Son's Creek by the boat ramp. My equipment might be off a degree or two because it's a little old, but I can tell you first hand the water was very cold. Just ask my frozen feet. First time all year I forget my rubber boots and it just happens to be the coldest day.
