Brad Laabs Fishing Report
- May 1, 2010 |
What an
unbelievable start to our spring. The
warmest I can remember. Water
temps on our area lakes are already around
60 degrees. We were into the
first week of June last year before water
temps got that warm. Area
fishermen are having success with pan fish.
Sunfish are active in very
shallow water. You can actually site fish
for them right now. They are
taking small leeches, pieces of night
crawler, or crappie minnows on small
bright jigs or hook under a bobber. Crappies
are setting up next to spawning
beds. Look for the 8 foot water with green
weed growth in areas you know
that the weeds will become emergent. You
will be able to trigger your bites
by fishing for them as they suspend over the
weed tops. Small jigs or hooks
tipped with crappie minnows under a bobber
or small jigs with minnows or
twister tails jigged aggressively slightly
above the fish will bites. Bright
colors seem to work well with pan fish,
especially in the early season.
