Water temperature's

[GreggM]

When fishing in the fall, winter, and spring seasons, surface water temperatures can often be drastically deceiving. If you happen to be marking fish near the lake bottom take a pool thermometer and add enough weight, then drop the thermometer down so you can get a temperature reading where the fish are located. When you are targeting suspending fish just lower the thermometer to the level that the fish are holding.
This exercise always helps me to select the proper lure and presentation during all of the seasonal transitions. This simple step will help you up your catch, and save precious moments while you're on the water.
