I'm finally on the board for 2012. This is the earliest bass I've ever caught from the coldest water I've ever caught a bass from.
I went to a nearby Columbia, MD Lake today for two hours. Sunny skies. Warm air temps and a slight breeze that turned into a stiff breeze. The water was really cold. I guessed all the fish were on the bottom and deep. I don't have a fish finder yet, but I'm guessing the deepest part of this man made lake is around 12 feet. I caught this 11 inch bass on a piece of shrimp on a drop shot. I was trying to catch a catfish, but was happy for the bass. I was letting the wind blow me around while the drop shot weight dragged along the bottom.
I saw a bunch of people fishing for trout from shore because the DNR stocked the lake a week or two ago. I didn't see anyone catch a fish. The Owner light MUTU circle hook was right in the corner of his mouth. It's good to finally catch something, it's been a while.
