NOW. I' d jump on about anything that bites. But as I' ve always done whenever it warms up like today 72 deg. Friday 70. That will bring them (Bass) out to the top for warm water.
I' ll go this week. Tomorrow morning. Just to try some top water stuff late afternoon! Small and slow. It works.
Then check out the Crappie. Using blue tube/white split skirt or red tube /silver skirt and slow roll beetle spin. They start bitting hard here when the Dogwood trees first start budding. Sometimes live minnows and a cork work best.
