Me and the boys were up at 4am and on the water well before 6am.  The sun came up around 6:25am.  Spotted and largemouth bass were caught on spinner baits and Gulp Minnows.  The crappie was caught on a Gulp Yellow Minnow, and the 15 pound catfish was caught on Gulp Minnow and ultra-light 4lb test line.  Water temp was from 59 to 63F.  Sunny 70F day.
