One of the 1st things I noticed was that the shad have left the area where I had been seeing them the most and they was really no where to be found, this is good means its cold enough to kill some and group them up in deeper water... and thats just where I found them and I found plenty of hungry bass with them. And just because they are hungry didn't mean they was feeding like crazy but they would eat in short periods you might catch 3-4 then have nothing for awhile, so after picking up on that I started looking for more pods of these fish so I can rotate them out and keep catching... and it worked like it should.. The next couple days they changed and left some of the areas and moved into grass and scattered and you really had to cover water to get your bites but once again you'd get a few and most of the time if one was a 5 the rest was just like her but if it was a 3 they was around the same size, thats a great sign in my eyes means the big fish are setting up shop and owning an area.
Water Temp : well its cold 1st day 37 2nd day 40 3rd day 45 degrees
Water Clarity : Very clear for most of the lake with some stained areas
Grass : Still Plenty of it, did notice where the ice was that grass is going away.
This Cold Snap : I hope to see more shad die off and grass dissipate to where we just have some clumps here and there.
