hoosierbass07 Posted March 2, 2015 Posted March 2, 2015 I know the real northern states may still get some bad weather but here in Indiana the weather forecast is calling for temps up in the lower 50s next week. So we have one more week of cold weather and then it looks like it's going to start warming up in lower 40s to lower 50s. I can't wait to get out my plastic lizards and Texas rig them and do some bass fishing once the ice melts! No more ice fishing for me. Bring on the spring time weather! My crankbaits are ready, spinnerbaits are ready, now I have to get my early spring soft plastics ready. I guess I will start out with small worms, lizards, and grubs and jigs. Oh, and spring training baseball begins on Tuesday too! Bring on Spring! 1 Quote
ABW Posted March 2, 2015 Posted March 2, 2015 I'm going to try and get out next week too! Going to try throwing jerkbaits and gain confidence in those. Quote
Weld's Largemouth Posted March 2, 2015 Posted March 2, 2015 I plan to be out by march 23rd. The water will probably be unfrozen by then, hopefully. Quote
wuchr20 Posted March 2, 2015 Posted March 2, 2015 I plan to be out by march 23rd. The water will probably be unfrozen by then, hopefully. My lake never gets frozen but whenever I try to go out, It always rains and i get soaked. Which is better? Quote

bucky Posted March 3, 2015 Posted March 3, 2015 I plan on getting out late next week. Predicting 6 more inches snow Thursday, but next week temps above freezing and a couple days in high 50's. Bays are thawing now and only a couple days this week below freezing. May be too much stain for good jerkbait fishing,but they will be ready to bite something. Quote

hoosierbass07 Posted March 3, 2015 Author Posted March 3, 2015 You must live in southern Indiana. forecast does not look like that north of I-70! I'm near Terre Haute. From the Weather Channel site: March 3 (45/24), 4 (24/7), 5 (17/-2), 6 (34/16), 7 (43/21), 8 (43/27), 9 (44/26), 10 (49/30), and 10 (52/31). Yeah, the ice will not be melted for most of the month but still - the temps are rising so I say we are in spring time! Quote
Super User A-Jay Posted March 3, 2015 Super User Posted March 3, 2015 The bass season opener here in Northern Lower Michigan is routinely the third Saturday in April. There is a distinct possibility that this year, the lakes will still be frozen, Solid. So Spring - not so much. A-Jay Quote
paul. Posted March 3, 2015 Posted March 3, 2015 More crappy weather here this week. torrential rains tomorrow (up to 2" forecast) which means muddy water. then the temp plummets again after that which means COLD muddy water. UGH. i'm SO over winter. Bring on those blooming dogwoods. 1 Quote

Super User Sam Posted March 3, 2015 Super User Posted March 3, 2015 Not so fast, my friend, as Lee Corso would say. Check this out for this week. You can "Like" on Facebook or go to this guy's blog, wxrisk.com He is usually correct far in advance of the local TV and radio weather reports. Enjoy! 0z TUESDAY GFS MODELS ,... VALID FOR THURSDAY BEST/ heaviest snow from north central TN ..KY into WVA ...8 to 12" in that area ... and 6-10" over far Northern VA MD most of DEL southeast PA/ Philly most of central and southern NJ NYC Big dry slot over all fo SW VA that seems to be expanding into the southern Piedmont. Both Models STILL have Richmond Metro and Charlottesville seeing 3 to 6" BUT the 1" or Less snow line is close to Charlottesville and west of RIC. It is quite Possible that Roanoke Lynchburg Farmville Martinsville Danville see nothing out of this Quote

RSM789 Posted March 3, 2015 Posted March 3, 2015 Hey, even one of the beach's here in Southern California was covered in white stuff yesterday, although it was hail & not snow. Google "Huntington Beach snow" for pictures However, it all melted in about an hour or so, it will reach the mid 60's today and this weekend the full moon will most likely have pulled the big females up on the nests. Well, at least I felt your pain for about 60 minutes... Quote
