Mid Lake - March 6 - Deep bite using swimbait

[Dock-in-it]

I fished this morning in post frontal conditions and the swimbait bite was pretty good until 9AM. There was basically no wind so that allowed for moving around checking multiple locations. The large winter time groups of fish have thinned out and you have to cover a lot of water with the trolling motor. I was mainly looking for a scenario of 2-3 fish swimming together high in the water column. There are also a lot of singles roaming around and they are tougher to catch. Most of the fish were steadily moving around trees and there were also some holding in the tree tops.

Kept the boat in 30-50 FOW with plenty of trees and the shad were very limited. 

I used a 2.8 Keitech on four different jig heads from 1/4 to 1/2oz.

If a fish is 20-40ft down, I use the 1/2oz head to get the bait down quickly to fish that are constantly moving.

Had about 10 keepers.....mainly LM.

WT 45 to 46
