Okay, the confidence is back. Today, I weighed 6 lbs 6.5 oz, 3 lbs 3 oz, and several 1 - 2 lbs. I had my wife with me for good luck. Water temperatures ranged from 48 to 55. The windy open water was 48, while the shallow isolated water was 55. The males were everywhere, including that shallow 55, while the females seemedĀ deeperĀ and tight to cover. I had my confidence bait and rod: a Genesis rod - 7'0" Med-Heavy Fast and a 3/8 oz jig with 3-inch trailers, color green/brown.
