There was snow on the ground at my house last week - not much, and the
only
time this year,so far. Sunday I picked a daffodil in my yard, the first
one.
Today the thermometer in the shade on my deck hit 82 degrees, and highs
all
week are supposed to be in the 70s.

Went to West Point yesterday and started at 9:00 AM. First cove I fished I
got
a 17 inch bass on a spinnerbait about half-way back. Went to the next cove
and
got a 3 pounder off some rocks on a jig and pig - about half way back. A
little
way past that I got a 15 inch bass on a jerk bait.

Looked like a great pattern - bass moving in staging. Water was 52 to 54
and it
was cloudy. Then at 10:30 it was like a knife cut the clouds and pushed
them
away - went from full clouds to not a cloud in sight in about 30 minutes.
Didn't get another bite and stayed till 4:00 PM. Surface temp had gone
from 52
at 9 AM to 56 at 4 PM at the ramp.

Have a club tournament there Sunday. Supposed to be warm all week - until
SUNDAY when a bad cold front is supposed to come thru. Oh well ........
Ronnie
