Do you think the majority of the fish will be on beds at this time or starting to move off of them or just starting to move on them. I am sure its still kind of early to tell but based on what the weather is doing now, what are your estimations? www.nellyssurplus.com The Webs Leading Authority in used Security, Surveillance, and Loss Prevention Products 15% off for all TFF board members, contact me @ customerservice@nellyssurplus.com for details.

Some will be finished and moving off, some will be going full strength and some will not have started depending on what part of the lake you will be fishing. More finished up north, some starting, during and finished mid lake and some more starting and during south end. FISHING NOW NOT WORKING ANYMORE

Their will still be bedding fish in late April and early May. March full moon will bring a lot of big fish to the bedding areas. Back off the skinny water and fish the 5' to 9' and get some of those bigguns.

There are fish spawning in Northern creeks right now, and the will continue too. But in April, it doesnt matter where you go, you will normally find beds. https://www.instagram.com/back40.outdoors www.mercurymarine.com www.lftlures.com

We will likely get another cold blast... it is a [censored] shoot when it will happen. When you have to lock in on a specific date that is the chance you take. And I know who "Jeff" is.

Last year we went early March which was a week following a snow storm. That was a doozer.
