A few days after the rain and snow and cold, it warmed up finally to 52F.  Water temp was 45F.  We hung upper lake portion, jigging and casting in a few honey holes.  The fish pictured above were the only two caught in this 2 hour trip.  Orange seemed to be the color of the day.  Two bass, a largemouth and a spottted.

Cold morning 37F and water temp was 49F.  Me and the boys caught a few nice spotted bass, but their was  a lot of current which made for tough trolling.  The sun warmed things up later to about 64F.  A glorious day out on the water. This bass was caught on a silver spoon in about 10 feet of water.
