Not sure about the water temperature. keith,{I'll check today}I thought I would be pitching all morning so I left my fish finder home.I'm used to seeing bass making big splashes when I approach them with my jon when flipping {When they are spawning} I kicked up no bass. I fish every weekend so I figure I will eventually hit them when they are bedding. I saw a couple of beds yesterday with fry on them. But normally when they are bedding I see loads.I also see males guarding the nest.I'm not seeing any of this yet. Maybe next month...or possibly I've missed the spawn.

I did see 2 gators spawning. Aaron and I also got a little scare. I have to watch him sometimes {Babysit my 15 year old} After I drive the gas motor to my spot we have to carefully change seat. When I stopped a huge 13 foot gator busted off teh shore. I had startled him. Just as we were nervously switching seats in my 10 foot jon boat teh gator accidently came up directly under the boat. He was so freaked out that he splashed real big almost flipping the boat. []After no hits by 10:30 I finaaly realized the bass would not be on the shoreline. I made myself move out to deeper water. Finally . three bass picked up myTexas rigged red shadand 3 bass were caught. Lessons learned..
1. Do not leave fish finder home.
2. If bass are not biting on the shoreline..go to Carolina in deeper water.

I posted this as I figured some of you guys may have run into this problem before...weather feels like spawning season but the fish are not there.
