Great day on the water today. Caught more bass today than I ever have at Martin. Quit counting at 20 and went looking for a big one. Never found one but caught 5 or 6 more real quick and started counting again. banana I think I made it to 30 bass. Caught them on rattle trap, deep diving crankbait, lizard, and spinnerbait. All between 14 and 18 inches. Everything and everywhere I tried caught fish. Started out skipping my favorite spots and headed toward the warmer waters. It was plenty breezy and with the air temps 34 starting out I wasn't interested in messing around in the colder water. On the water around 10 this morning, never saw another boat until 11. Guess I'm ready again for a cold water lake. rolfmao


Cattle are up and chewing...guess that was a good sign.


Birds were out and working...another good sign. Missed the pic of two deer crossing the road.















Even the cormorant pattern for blue cats was working.


Fish were very aggressive today, especially in the 64 degree water, much lighter bite in the water where temps were 57. Guess its time to go for the crappie, white bass, and blues next. bang rolfmao

My cattle are notoriously unreliable! I've often noted what the cattle do and what the hunting or fishing is like. I think that old wive's tale is just that. Nice catches! That looks like a flathead, though. Even more impressive clap

I saw one cormorant in tree below as I was heading for the other side. Rarely fails as I got hit on first cast on the drop. Thought 20 inches was minimum for Kayak Wars and was really hacked off when it didn't measure. Got slimed real good.

My bad, that's def a channel cat. It will make KW thumb Couldn't see the tail in the first pic. It's forked, so not a flattie.

Good catching Louis!!! I would stick with the warm water lakes for a couple weeks if I had the option. Catching is more fun than fishing when it's cold
