Whatever happens when I'm just glad to scratch out a few bites without getting run over by the folks that haven't cranked a boat since last September.

Today was NOT the day for that.

There are some fish shallow on Lake Tyler now. But they really have not moved up in full spawn mode yet. The FFS minnow guys may still be trying to get them deep now. Last year was a different story.

I haven't spent a ton of time up shallow looking but it seems like very few are on beds south of the bridge on T. Bend. Water still in low 50s towards the south end.
Not sure about North of the bridge.

Full moon right around the corner and length of day is finally getting right. I saw 58-59 degree water consistently Saturday in North Texas. I’ve been hearing of one bed fish here and one there since the first week of Feb , hoping this year we’ll see solid weather patterns that will move a big wave up versus a more scattered spawn. Looking forward to a week on Toledo froggin and sight fishing in a couple of weeks.
