And the magic happened later this week when the weather changed to warm. That created magic, especially since they are pre-spawn, post-spawn, and spawning. It made the big girls move up shallow.

Which tournaments should I enter? :-) I fish from a boat, and it’s crucial to understand the rules beforehand.

One Awesome Evening - within the first 30 minutes of a 4-hour trip, I caught nearly a 19-pound bag of my 5 best fish!!!! That does not happen often... I was flipping and pitching around docks with weed transitions to hard bottom, which was the winning ticket. What I noticed was that big females grouped together either before or after spawning, though I'm not sure which. The smallmouth were finishing up their spawning, so these could have been pre-spawn females, but they didn't appear to be very big-bellied. Water temps are in the very low 60's

June 1st (yesterday) our water temps are only 61 degrees --- that is unusual. The average water temperature in Massachusetts lakes during the first week of June typically ranges from about 65-72°F

You are on the right track; have faith in today and in the future. Similar to fishing, you'll experience wonderful moments and also learn from challenging moments and tournaments. BLAT - You're doing great. This mindset of continuous improvement is the reason for your future success. IMHO, for anyone reading this -> It's crucial to minimize negative thoughts while embracing positive ones—keep pushing ahead. Embrace failures, as they provide valuable learning opportunities.
