Default Got a cold one today..

Man the air temp was warmer but the water was extremely cold. I fished for about hour and a half and got one fish on a lipless crank. The water was super muddy because of the two inches of rain we just got so I was really happy with getting this fish. I missed one last week so it felt good getting this one even though it was not that big. I guess I should be happy because I am usually not fishing this early anyway because the lakes are usually frozen or just in the process of thawing.
Here is the first fish of a new season:

Here was the water color. The picture really does not show how brown the water was.

Cold water fishing can be a real challenge, and when the water gets muddy it makes it even tougher. Congrats on getting the first fish of the season out of the way!

It was a cotton cordell superspot in the copper craw color. It really produces well in a cold/muddy water situation. I also switch out the hooks for some red mustad triple grips #4

Congrats on the nice bass. My pond is still half frozen. Muddy as chocolate milk. Just getting over a bad cold so I didn't fish. Maybe next warm spell. Going from the 50's down to the low 20's tonight.
