04/25/2010 The
past 2 weeks have been spent getting a handle on the new trolling motor
system, which has been fantastic along with the new boat I'm sure you
all will enjoy as well. So as far as the report goes, I have seen it all
over the past 2 weeks. We have gone from cold dingy water with little
bait, no vibe and no Bass, to last weeks very solid Bass action
along with some nice size Bluefish, and gaining steam. The Bass seem to
be rolling into their usual Springtime haunts and moving along fairly
predictably. I had the 1st sight fishing opportunity of the season last
week when we had calm winds and slick waters, which had the bass rolling
like Tarpon in the deeper basins as they picked off the newly hatched
grass shrimp. The Bass have been ranging in size from 20" - 25"
with a few bruisers mixed in that have been spotting trailing the hook
Bass when approaching boatside. The Springtime Blues have returned for
their annual visit, which also spiced up the action. They have been your
typical 5-7 lb'rs with some hogs also cruising along side when the hooked
fish comes boat side. Water temps have been pretty steady at 54 degrees,
water clarity is mixed from spot to spot, and bait is multiplying at a
frantic pace, especially around the moon phases. Spring is here, and the
fishing is now full steam ahead. |
