Fished a couple days this week. Lake starting to get jade green, which means fleas at a minimum. Best temp on the probe was between 60 and 70.....ran it and washed lures.  Re-launched the probe and found a good break up high, but it was 67 degrees.....reset coppers and riggers to reach it and immediately fired on a smallmouth.  Figured warm water fish are fun too, so I continued to run it.....found many, many small bows and browns, but surprisingly some good fish in the bathwater too. No big bows, but many 3-5 pounders and a nice brown over 7..........all released.  Never have fished water that warm for silver, but I learned somthing,  that even a warm water temp break can hold them. Tight lines!

40 is not much for them to chase lures when we are jigging.   I would not be surprised if they are aware of lures at 60 feet as we watch the TV (depth finder)   Lures just starting to go down and they are moving up to meet them.....jk
