Water temperature

Does anyone think all this warm rain will bring water temperature up and get the crappie moving?

It certainly won't hurt any.  So far the rain has been just perfect to get the pastures, wheat fields etc. really going.  Not much run off yet, however ground is good and wet so if another big rain hits today or tomorrow it could add some runoff and warmth to the lake.  There is a slight bump in the creeks and rivers from what we have already but not much.

The biggest help may be not dipping down into the 30's each night. It seemed like for the last couple weeks, we would lose all the heat we gained at night. Staying above 50 at night this week might help...unfortunately, we don't have a lot of direct sun light. It's all about enthalpy!

AUDIOCHEM PLEASE REFRAIN FROM USING DIRTY WORDS ON THE FORUM.

LOL! I'll keep to the physics forums. Mon/Tues are looking awesome. 

[MOPanfisher]

I will admit I had to look the word up.

I am an entropy man myself. lol

entropy

/ˈɛn trə pinoun

1.
