Pritch13 Posted January 13, 2016 Author Posted January 13, 2016 I seem to be able to bring it back snag free with no weeds on it now. Just have to wait for bites, as I'm yet to have any Quote
Super User Paul Roberts Posted January 13, 2016 Super User Posted January 13, 2016 Where are you, what state? Do you know what season you're in, in terms of the fish? What's the water visibility like? Shore or boat? Quote
Pritch13 Posted January 13, 2016 Author Posted January 13, 2016 I'm in south Florida, perfect visibility, fishing from shore and I'm not sure what season as I've just moved here Quote

Super User Paul Roberts Posted January 13, 2016 Super User Posted January 13, 2016 You should be in prespawn. Your water temps are probably mid to upper 60's to 70. High clarity often means that fish can go deeper than in more turbid lakes. But... that doesn't mean they do -esp in in S FL where winter isn't all that challenging for the fish. Is your water a natural lake, river, pit, or a residential pond? Is there much cover -vegetation- or is it more swimming pool like? Quote
Pritch13 Posted January 13, 2016 Author Posted January 13, 2016 There is quite a lot of vegetation, and a natural lake. I will shove a thermometer down a fish when i finally catch one! Quote
Super User Paul Roberts Posted January 13, 2016 Super User Posted January 13, 2016 Although I wouldn't pass up checking out some deeper dredging I'd certainly be spending more of my time in that shallower vegetation -esp if you aren't catching. Good luck with it. Let us know how you do. Quote
Pritch13 Posted January 13, 2016 Author Posted January 13, 2016 Will do, and excuse my ignorance but what do you mean by dredging? Quote
Super User Paul Roberts Posted January 14, 2016 Super User Posted January 14, 2016 "Dredging" -fishing deep. Quote
Pritch13 Posted January 14, 2016 Author Posted January 14, 2016 Well i feel stupid haha, okay thanks Quote
