Some probably spawned already, but they don't all spawn at once. More will likely come up the creek to do their thing this month.

Yeah.....highly doubt it, likely just getting started, ours up here peaks in mid April, probably just an off day.....I doubt very many, and Im guessing less than 10% have done their thing this early in the run. Cast net some minners and bump them on the bottom and see if you pick some up.

Thanks for the input folks. This is my first one and i know that timing is key. Does cold fronts affect the bite? They sure can.

I tried it out this morning and didnt get a bite. One guy had caught a couple early in the morning. Only fished about a hour or so. I dont remember it being so shallow.

They are in and have been in the creeks for weeks. Just have to get out and find the right spot.

Put my kayak in at 10 mile bridge road between Lake Worth and Eagle Mountain for my first trip in my new to me Tarpon 12. Paddled up to the dam from there and down a ways. Final total for the day? One measly sand bass. Did not get skunked and have officially caught fish in the yak.

I went out on a creek on Lewisville last week but only caught 3 small male sandbass. Hoping the rain tonight/tomorrow will get the water flowing and bring the sandbass run into full swing. I do not think the run is over yet.
