Have to wonder if that rapid of a temp change is a positive. Kind of like taking a pet store fish out of the bag too soon.

Or does it affect us more mentally than it does the fish physically, making us fish contrary to their actual situation?

Deep thoughts from a shallow fisherman...

Thinking the same thing, quick warm up may not be so good, may take them a few days to adjust.

I really don't know. I do know this however I am always looking this time of the year for a temperature upswing during the day. Usually does not have to be much and most times sunlite this time of the year won't hurt you to bad. Yesterday it was a very high sky, not a lot of really harsh sun, but it was funny, My face really got a good burn with the wind and sun. Usually not a big sun burner, especially in February. Had to have something to do with all that wind.

Other blog about yesterday was a success story sounds like, but for me I just could not put it together. Talked to Pete Wenners day before and he is catching but not as good as before his deep fish moved said the bite is really early. Said his deep fish deserted him last week, and scattered. He was saying after about 10 in the morning the bite is just about completely gone. He also said he is only finding maybe 2 or 3 on a location and has to move a bunch. Kind of got that when he was talking about fishing Viney Creek and then the Lower James river on the same guide trip. That would be scary.

Good Luck

That would be a big gas bill at the day's end.

Sounds like the fish are moving to the staging areas. A-rig bite could go away early this year. Changes the dynamics of tournaments when that happens.
