Big M area 2/22

[Quillback]

Got out today at 0800, wanted it to warm up a bit before I started, and fished until 2:30 PM.

Still not finding many places holding fish, as a matter of fact, I think 6 or 7 of the 10 I caught came from the same place, a rocky point with submerged trees,  Fish were a bit deep, 10-25 feet.  Caught them on a shaky head and the Ned, very, very, light biters.  Missed a good one, but about 10 minutes later caught a 4.5 LM that was my big fish of the day, 2nd place was a 15" Kentucky, and the rest were shorts.

Water is still a stained green, and I saw temps that were in the 47-49 range.

That is one super fish, Congrats.  Seems like they are where they are and stinky on the other locations.  That's the deal on early season fish, you find the hangout and it usually has a small pack and you can go and come back and tease up another or two.

Nice day and excellent report.

that fish won't weigh over 4.3lbs!  Good job.

Pretty good day, all things considered. Bite has gotten tougher in the White for me. Having to really move and shake to find/catch em.

Very nice Quill. Hopefully this a sign of some of those nicer fish pushing up to where we can get at them.
