I finally got to come do some fishing this week. I was staying at Theodosia, but put in various ramps from Spring Creek to Protem. Overall, fishing was good. Water temps ranged from 62-63 in the creeks, to 57-58 in the main lake. Lots of things were working pretty well for me.
I caught at least 20-30 smallmouth a day on the Ned and Grub, main lake pea gravel flats and points. Wind blowing in on them was better. Had a few smallmouth eat the jerkbait on the same places when the wind was really blowing. Wednesday morning I spent in the backs of creeks throwing topwater, and had about a dozen LMB, including a 4 pounder. Shallow was the key. Like dorsal fin out of water shallow. They seemed to be in more on an eating mode than a spawn mode. I didn't see any fish locked on beds, and saw few beds period. I moved down lake, throwing a topwater at the mouths of main lake spawning pockets looking for a big fish, and found some white bass. They still had eggs, so not all of them are done yet.
I'd have to say most everything seemed prespawn still- but that could already have changed.
