I headed out this morning for the first time in about a week just to see how the bass are biting in my favorite area. I think my Early Morning Bass (EMB™) days are about over till next spring due to the cold weather early in the morning, plus the fact that it’s getting light out later and later each day.
I did manage to catch a few but for the most part, they were dinks and all they would bite were Senkos, both 5 and 4-inch. I also tried spinnerbaits and chatterbaits for a little while but no takers this morning. I may try some shallower areas if we get a warm morning but I think it’s time to start heading out later in the day again.
It can’t be that cold out there yet, the water hasn’t frozen
Nice bass there Nomad, that one looks a good size.
Steve,
Mid to upper 40′s at night, and my rule is; if I can see my breath, it’s cold
Nice going Nomad, and Steve I can vouch for Nomad when he says that it’s starting to get a little chilly in the mornings. Of course it’s all relative though. Come next spring, after a long and cold winter, we’ll be looking at mornings like these as being warm…
So true, Rob. Come March, upper 30′s and low 40′s will seem quite balmy
You have thick socks and gloves don’t you Nomad?? I think you should be able to keep the EMB series going for a few more weeks at least.
Nomad needs to put a little more “natural insulation” on his body like me Steve. Then he wouldn’t have these problems!!!
Like that “natural insulation” …
LOL Rob

After I quit smoking almost 3 years ago, I put on some of that “Natural Insulation” but I have lost it all again
Ack! I just looked the weather forecast and it’s getting worse
Cold, windy and rainy tomorrow followed by even more cold Tuesday
