Went out on the two best days this year so far here in WV....
Friday 3-19 Woodrum Lake, Jackson Co. WV Mid day temp 68F
Got the boat ready, started on the way to the lake and forgot my crappie case, then was about 4 miles outta town, forgot my license, after getting that resolved went to the launch. saw two guys with boats not working, it's about 1pm 65-68F, clears skys and good amount of wind...start fishing nothing bitting about 1hr into the fishing the battery dies...looks like its not holding it's charge this time around, wind is blowing us everywhere since we have to use the gas motor only the trolling might be able to mix choclate milk. They guy I took ,neighbor for almost all my life....lucked into a smll crappie and a good size bream. That was it for our trip nothing special
Saturday 3-20 Upper Mud River Lake, Lincolin Co. WV Mid day temp 76F
I happen to run into a buddy at the local gander mtn. and he invited me for the next morn. So I get up it's 46F at the house...throw on what would be appropiate, went to the launch, it's 36F there....my buddy is dress right but he lives 5mi away unlike my 1hr drive.So i decided to go, the lake is pretty stained/muddy at the launch. We made our way up towards the creek side of the impoundment where the water cleared up some....water temp was 50+- 1 and nothing was bitting....sun came out Water temp raised to 55+-1getting more bites but no takers (Crappie Jigs) finally connected caught two crappie one real nice size (for my local area) and one not so. My Buddy took 1 bass about 12in maybe. We packed it up at 2p and the lot was full, more full then I've seen it in the midle of spring/early summer.
