Thats what I do too. They go into the live well for a few min and I will get a picture when the activity slows down

Mine excuse was due to 30 mph winds

By the time I landed it and got ready for a pic we were 100 yards away

I always take pics away from the area as well. Sometimes I'll throw them in the livewell and take pics on the boat ramp or out in the middle of the lake. Otherwise I take them to Adams spots and take the pics there so that millions of people flock to his areas.

J/K Adam if I knew all the places you fished I'd just go fish them myself.

I'm thinking about going to his spot tomorrow. I went to the same spot I've been catching them and no luck. It looks like the water has dropped a bit since the last time and the water temp was barely 50 in most spots. Later in the afternoon might have been better or tomorrow, but spring sounds so better right now.

The water is forecast to drop about 3 feet this week so they'll be pulling off shore

Welp turns out your right.

Didn't catch a thing in spring lake. Not much water in there, but I'm sure one of the 50 boats in spring lake caught something

I did find some water in the 60's and that as at 1. By the end of the week it should be on fire. To bad the water is dropping.

I'm headed to Spring in about an hour and a half and I'm sure I'll get hammered

I can't believe you didn't catch any in there $:-\$

Wow the water came down alot were I was today

I started out strong with a 4 pounder and a 2.75 in the first hour and a half. Then I fished a different area and by the time I came back the water had come down 4" or so. I did not fish it again, but my other spot looked just as good.

The highlight of the day was the two huge snappers I found that were doing the dew. Both of them were over 30 pounds. I have not seen two like that on the river. They were in a bout 6 inches of water.

With the water comming down that much I am going to have to fish different then I have been. No more fish that are right now in 1.5 foot of water or less.

Were you south of spring? You go to spring at all? I guess we can see how eventfull your day was when 2 snappers doing it is the highlight of the day.

but seriously thats some big snappers

. All my fish are in shallow water now to. I caught a bunch on the bank in 2ft of water last week and now its only about 1-1.5ft and I didn't get a bite.

Lipripper · April 15, 2009, 04:03:04 PM

Karl it's n ot 5:00 yet get back to work

tennispro · April 15, 2009, 04:05:56 PM

I was south of spring lake but not by much

The water was cold, when I left at 2:30 the water temps were 52. My first two fish came out of 44* water.

Hey Karl I need to send you a picture of a skirt and see if you have anything like it. Or if you can get anything like it. I am down to my last one and it is getting really bad. I will PM you a picture when I get time.
