Key Fish Behavior:
- Trout: Trout are likely to be active throughout due to stable conditions. Expect them to be feeding near the surface.
- Bass: Bass will be more active and aggressive with increasing temperatures. Look for them in shallower waters near structures.
- Perch: With the warming trend, perch will likely move to shallower areas to feed actively.
Actionable Advice:
- Hotspot: Target bass near shallow structures and rocky areas with crankbaits.
- Technique: Use swimbaits for bass, and small jigs or worms for perch.
- Optimal Windows: Early mornings and late evenings when the weather is calm and fish are likely to be more active.
Lure Recommendations:
- Trout: Start with small spinners or spoons, transition to live bait as the day warms up.
- Bass: Try crankbaits in the morning and switch to soft plastics as the day progresses.
- Perch: Use small jigs or live minnows near the bottom for perch feeding.
Tackle Recommendations:
- Use light to medium rods and reels with 6-10 lb test lines for trout and perch. For bass, opt for medium-heavy rods with 10-20 lb test lines to handle larger fish.
Safety Reminders:
- Be prepared for changing weather conditions, carry appropriate gear, and always prioritize safety on the water.
