FLMB with water temps in the high 50’s are pre spawn, 60’s looking for males on beds and cruising females. These bass are still feeding and catchable.

I would be using 6” Senko’s in Junebug laminate and 1/2 oz spinnerbait with large gold willow blades, keep it simple.

If it were this easy, everybody would do it!

Anyone having any luck or Rodman? Or would it be better to hit the Chain or Headwaters?

Just saw a vid with Scott Martin who said the big bass wave should be starting on Okeechobee with this warming trend coming up.  I would assume the other lakes will follow.  I hope so, we’re heading to headwaters next Friday for a week and it would be fantastic if the big girls turned on.

Good Luck over there

 

I’ll let you know about The Lake

I just made it to Palatka, will be fishing Rodman tomorrow…figured why not. Always wanted to fish here. Came up from the panhandle, any areas in Rodman anyone recommends? Closer to dam, or more south of dam
