Root Admin Phil Lilley Posted May 3, 2013 Root Admin Posted May 3, 2013 Well, Duane and I braved the cold front this afternoon, putting in at Bridgeport about 1 p.m.. Met a couple of guys going home with may be 10... said they'd been limiting everyday this week before noon but today they were tough- off the banks. We hit a couple of brush piles, marked and unmarked, from the ramp towards Cape and caught fish off all of them. We caught them 24 inches deep over brush on a jig and float. We caught them in 8 feet of water on the bottom around brush 25 feet off spawning banks. We didn't find any on banks. Warmest water temp was 65. Most was 63-64 even when I pulled out. Air temp was 51 dropping to 40 when we pulled out at 6:20. We had 15 nice keepers and one white bass. We caught, I bet, 40 shorts and a handful of bass.
duckydoty Posted May 3, 2013 Posted May 3, 2013 Once again, had a fun time. I did get a little cold and still trying to warm up. It will be interesting to see what this weather does to them. A Little Rain Won't Hurt Them Fish.....They're Already Wet!! Visit my website at.. Ozark Trout Runners
fishingaddiction Posted May 3, 2013 Posted May 3, 2013 Good report guys. Going out today in this weather was worth it for you. Sounds like the crappie pulled off the bank due to approaching front? Born to Fish. Forced to Work.
