Brent was dieing to get on the lake reardless of the weather since he has been moving & hasn't been in almst 4 weeks. I was a little hesitant when at 8;30 the temp was 21*! We bundled up & hit the water about 10:00. It was still only 26*. I wasn't to confident when the water temp read 45*, but on the 3rd or 4th cast I had a nice 2.5# nail a trap on a grass clump in about 4'. We started hitting those clumps that were from 4-7' & both Brent & I caught 4 apiece in the 1st hour. we began moving around trying to find grass next to deep water & Brent went on a tear. He caught about 12 fish in a row! I was gettin tired of lippin them, especially in that cold water. Anyway, he kicked my butt as usual. We caught 27 Bass & 1 big white bass. I think I only caught 9 & Brent got 18 emoWorthy I couldn't believe those fish were so active on a post front, bluebird day! It was a blast when I could keep my hands warm! Best 5 went 20-21#.
