I have 64-68 degrees logged for a year ago this past week on Lewisville for the most part. On Tuesday I was still seeing 55 and 56 degree water in the morning. 57 and 58 on Fork early Thursday, the warmest I ended up seeing was 62.5. Insane for this late in the year. And brutal. We had 1 fish before lunch thursday, caught a few after including an 8-10 off of a bed. No moving bite to speak of. . .all caught on beds or fished reel slow.

Don't know if they were spawning, but saw plenty of gizzard shad shallow today at White Rock, swimming around in circles in some rocks by a north end boat ramp.

I called Al, he said fish don't spawn anymore because the use of fossil fuels have caused the planet's average temperature to rise to the boiling point of water. JK Al is a moron!

In a normal year I would transition production from pre-bed-post spawn into the shad spawn but they're overlapping this year all over the South. Really interesting for me to view all of the different sub-species of shad ie...  should've noted I made these for someone in Texas this week.

Those will not work Curtis no eyes everyone knows a bait with no eyes is useless since bass will look them in the eye before eating them

I am not sure why we are worrying about the earths surface temp rising one degree when according to Al the Earth's Core is Several Million Degrees. It is closer to 9000 degress but with Al Math that is pretty close....haha http://newsbusters.org/blogs/noel-sheppa...million-degrees

Mark, there was quite a large shad spawn going on at Fork last weekend. Something to see. Shad, bass, gar and carp all spawning in the same location at the same time.
