Warm Water / Slow Fishing should come to an end soon!

10/04/2005

Turnover should start this week!

Right now thw water temp is 62-64 degrees. If the forcast is correct we will finally start turnover this week! I don't remember ever having water temps in the 60's in October! Fishing has been very tough for the last month. I don't expect it to improve until turnover is complete.

Fishing for Jumbo Panfish during turnover can be very good. See the current "Guide Tips"
