Went out yesterday caught 3 small channel cats fishing for bass on jerk bait. No bass. It was cold! water was 53 degrees. Air was mid 40s. Very light wind. As the sun set it got real cold.
I went hunting on Saturday and always bring my fishing gear with me. It was 16 degrees and the wind was blowing 20 mph. The deer weren't moving, so I went to the pond to do some fishing. The best parts of the pond were frozen over, so I was stuck fishing what I could. Didn't get a bite. People think I am crazy, but I did it last year during muzzleloader season and it was a lot colder. I ended up catching a couple dozen crappie.
