Yes, I'm crazy and yes I went fishing Saturday.  I only seen 2 or 3 other boats all day it's never like that on a Saturday even in the winter.  I fished the lower end and caught some fish and never did get cold, but I was dressed for it. Had a blessed day stayed safe didn't tear up anything and didn't get wet. Got unloaded at the Old 86 ramp and stayed with 5 miles either side of it. My rig was the only one at ramp all day.  When I got there at 7 the air temp was 28 degrees with a strong north wind and I fished until 4:30. It was 24 degrees when I loaded up. I don't know the speed of the wind, but as the big boys say it was gassing, all day.  Water color was good and clean except for the wind blown stuff. The water temp was 46 degrees about everywhere I went. I should have tossed the old wart or crawler some, but my first fish of the day was a 3.90 spot on the damiki and that was kind of how I wanted to fish. I had some new heads and baits I have been wanting to try. They were busting through the shad balls around 30 feet.  So I stayed with that most of the day except when I tossed a jerk bait and A rig. Caught fish on most everything I tossed, but the moving baits like Jerkbait, A rig and Ice jig got the better bites.  After the first stop it was a hit or miss on the next 10 or so stops. You could see pretty quick if they where going to play? All in all it was a great day to be on the water. I was mad enough to go, so I did.  Some of you will understand that 🎣🤣😂.
