[Bassininnh]

i have a tournament on squam lake in nh and we just had a week of 70 degree weather with some rain. the water didnt cool of more than 3 degrees. the air is going from 70 to 80. im wondering if this will make it better or worse.

If the water isn't changing more than 3 degrees I can't see how it'd change fishing that much but you never know.

A few degrees change in surface temp. during the summer shouldn't affect the fishing one way or another.  What will is the presence or lack of cloud cover and wind.  If either or both are present, you should expect fishing to be a litle better than it was under the bluebird skies of a cold front. Cold temps. over the past week don't always indicate a cold front and if fishing was decent during the week, the rise in temp. won't make much difference.
