Default Good Friday, Good Action

Hit the shed yesterday for the first time this year. On the water around 7, only one 1 other trailer in the lot. I recently got a lowrance elite 4x finder and havnt had a chance to use it so I spent a little while gettin it set up and messing with the settings. Air temps where high 30s, water was 48/49.

Found some good action throughout the morning. Ended up with one pickerel around 20", one fat lmb, and 3 smallies. Biggest went a hair over 16". Most were caught on jerkbaits except one of the smallies hit a size 15 panther Martin. Also, one of the smallies was my first "sonar" catch. Identified him on screen, casted to him, and bagged em. Good to know my sonar won't be a useless ornament, lol.

All in all, def not bad for a chilly, somewhat breezy spring morning........

Nice catches. I thought for sure this was gonna be a Shad report, and as much as I love Shad, it's good to see other fish hitting bait hard there now. In 3 weeks I'll be doing a 2 day river float, it's good news to hear the bite is on.
