Slow start but good finish. First lake up was a large, 1000+ acre lake but found water temos still a tad chilly at 58F. Only one bass - but 19" - and a couple dozen hammer handle pickerel in 3 hrs. Next lake was warmer much better. Water was 63F. Caught 6 bass up to 17" and 61 pickerel up to 19". Tossed around a small curly tail grub to entice some panfish and got some decent bluegills, pumpkinseds, perch and a plethora of crappies - a few pushing 14". I even got one crappie on a buzzbait which is very rare. Last stop was a small lake that was covered in algae and weeds. Very few openings but did manage three nice bass of 15", 16" and 18". From what I could see, bass are on beds still.
