Lake temps about 50-51?

Gonna try for crappie this weekend, cast for bass and those brown walleye..

Temps look nice but don't blame me for bringing the cold front this weekend.

70s to 60s to 50s on sunday..

Plan is to start out for suspended fish with jigs and bait, then work in to shore.
 

By Saturday I might be working in the yard.

Many talk about low lake levels, but years ago before the new set height this was pretty normal.
Spring rains will raise it up 20feet.

One of the biologist in the office caught 18 crappie on Friday. Most of them were keeper sized crappie. They were suspended under docks. It was an afternoon bite for them. With the calm winds most of the weekend, the bass fishing sounded tough.

Thanks Jeremy.

I can't always pick my weekend to fish, but the way I view it I learn more when conditions are NOT optimal..

I agree

WooHoo looks like Thursday temps will spread into Friday.
70-70-50 degree days

That means the honey-do list will have to wait.

Can't wait to fish!
