Aluma-Bass Posted March 22, 2011 Posted March 22, 2011 think lil early for bed action in our area.... Quote
vapredhunter Posted March 22, 2011 Posted March 22, 2011 when the water temp maintains 62 deg. bass will go to beds 55 to 62 deg. will be your best prespawn fishing Quote
SteveinVA Posted March 22, 2011 Posted March 22, 2011 Haven't seen any beds bu teh bite was pretty good last Saturday. went out in the evening 3-730 and caught about 6 bass and 2 blue gill. Mostly dinks but a couple 2-3 lbers. most were in the back of coves in water depths between 5-10 feet around laydowns water temps were from 56-60 Quote
Super User Sam Posted March 22, 2011 Super User Posted March 22, 2011 Dogwoods. When the Dogwoods bloom the bass are on their beds. Just watch the Dogwoods. Don't get them confused with the Bradford Pear trees that are blooming now. Dogwoods. Think Dogwoods!!! Quote
Super User Grey Wolf Posted March 22, 2011 Super User Posted March 22, 2011 Sam is giving you some pretty good advice !!!!!!!!!! Quote

Super User Sam Posted March 23, 2011 Super User Posted March 23, 2011 Which ever ones blossom first. Quote
typed by ben Posted March 23, 2011 Posted March 23, 2011 Which ever ones blossom first. well dang thats still close to a month off. i have noticed some bigger fish cruising around in the shallows near cover... but all the fish ive caught have been in at least 5 feet of water Quote
Super User Sam Posted March 24, 2011 Super User Posted March 24, 2011 Ben, they are probably eating to get fat for the spawn. Staging off shore and then running to the bank for an easy meal and then back deep. Just a thought. Quote
