Global Moderator Bluebasser86 Posted June 3, 2015 Global Moderator Posted June 3, 2015 Seeing lots of bluegill beds starting to pop up around here too. Quote
WPCfishing Posted June 3, 2015 Author Posted June 3, 2015 Seeing lots of bluegill beds starting to pop up around here too. Where are you located? What is water temp. Quote
Global Moderator Bluebasser86 Posted June 3, 2015 Global Moderator Posted June 3, 2015 NE Kansas, water temps are running in the high 60's low 70's. Quote
Gotfishyfingers? Posted June 3, 2015 Posted June 3, 2015 Seeing lots of bluegill beds starting to pop up around here too. Ya, those look more like Bluegill beds rather then Bass beds. Quote
Super User J Francho Posted June 3, 2015 Super User Posted June 3, 2015 Those are bluegill/sunfish beds. 2 Quote
Super User RoLo Posted June 3, 2015 Super User Posted June 3, 2015 Those are bluegill/sunfish beds. Yup Bass beds are normally separated by several feet of territory. Bluegill sunfish normally nest in colonies with beds separated by inches. Roger Quote
Super User WRB Posted June 3, 2015 Super User Posted June 3, 2015 Active beds look the opposite as those shown; should be clean light color center areas with darker surrounding bottom area. When you see a colony of beds, it's not bass. Tom Quote

When you see a colony of beds, it's not bass. Tom No so in all cases. It depends on the soil type. The photo I posted was taken on May 11, 2014 after the first bass spawn. Two weeks earlier there was no sign of them, not even with Imaging. 1 Quote

Rarely see dark bed centers with bass or bluegill, in fact the cleanest and sweet spot is usually a lightest colored pebbles, depending on the type of lake bottom.Tom Quote
WPCfishing Posted June 4, 2015 Author Posted June 4, 2015 I've only seen a few area's with bass beds in the lakes I fish in southern New England. I'm totally confused as to why. I'm not the only bass fisherman reporting this. Quote
