As for the water temps...This week we're seeing a warming trend, plus maybe some warmer rains mixed in with it. Usually Cumberland is the last lake in Kentucky to turn on as far as water temps are concerned just because of it's size and depth. This year it's not quite so big due to the draw down so it hsould be warming up a little quicker...if the warming weather pattern continues to stay on track how do you think things would be looking down there next week?

Also, how were things at the ramp you put in at?
I put in at Halcomb's Landing by myself and it's a piece of cake, just be careful where you park as people will block you in. Not much parking lot right now. This past weekend though I think I saw 7 or 8 boats in two days, weather I suppose. The bite is decent to good right now, and it's gonna get better as these water temps get to the high fifties to around 60 degrees. I personally feel 57 to 60 degree water is the sweet spot for the brown bass. If I look at my temp gauge and see this my confidence level goes way up. Get down there Chub, pretty soon with the weather warming the bite will go to strickly night and the wave makers will be out in force, good luck and report if you go.
