Less than 70 Degrees ... Waste of Time
Fished Friday afternoon on the falling tide out of Lanark. Caught a few, but nothing like normal at my spots. Noticed the temp was 68.5 or less. Saturday, I ran to a place where it was shallower and whenever we drifted into 70 degree water, the bite was on.
Its a wonderful day in the neighborhood!

Water temp never got over 69 for us saturday and we caught a bunch of trout on plugs and some reds in the benefit tournament we fished.

Fished Keaton, water temp was between 66-70 all weekend, caught trout, flounder, bluefish, and Spanish Mackerel. Almost all one jigging. Had a great time both Saturday and Sunday. And that early morning low tide on Saturday was a doozy, super low.

True dis ... just talkin' bout production. I enjoy wetting the boat whether I put fish in the box or not, but I'd be lying if I didn't say that I liked to pull'em in.

Micheal really screwed up the grass beds and from what I saw last weekend, there is little grass and more moss on the bottom these days. I had to move a lot to catch fish, but when I found bottom cover and temp, the fish were there. Not as many as in past years. Hopefully, this summer the grass beds will come back out and improve the situation.
Its a wonderful day in the neighborhood!
