Well for my first day on the water this year, Im either worried or excited for what is to come. I managed to put a 5 fish limit of 13.5lbs in the boat today on 4 largemouths and 1 spot. My spot was 3lbs even and was a freaking football. Had 1 short LM (13 inches) and a 3lb smallmouth.
All fish were taken on crank baits except for my last keeper on a spinnerbait. All fish except for the spot was taken near grass.
Temps on main lake were around 53 this morning, up to 57.8 this evening. Found some 57 in a couple bays around lunch. Also found some nice balls of shad about 2/3 the way back in the cove. The buck bass was near this same area but the other keepers were on 2ndary points and lead in banks to the back around grass beds. Largest fish today was 17 1/2, had another 17, and the others were 16-16 1/2.
Color mattered depending on clarity of water. All largemouths came in the dirty water.
Back at it tomorrow. Ill post pics when the trip is over.
