Water Temperature: 48
Water Clarity: 2-3 feet Hi fellow bassers, I got my boats back and made my first trip of the season to one of my favorite places to get BIG smallies, Great Moose lake. The weather was very overcast and air temp was 41 with winds out of the north at about 15-20 and the water temp was 48, not bad for the month of APRIL in Maine. I went up into the stream and started with suspending jerkbaits and never got a hit after about 45 minutes. I started to watch my fishfinder a little closer and noticd the smelt were on or just off bottom so i switched to a fluke and on my first cast caught a 2 pounder, small for that area but it was my first fish of the season. A little later a nice fat 3.8 pounder made its way to my boat. I only fished for 2 hours before the rain started to make its way into my area and i called it a day. Slow fishing but its only going to get better from now on. My club has a tournament on Great Moose in May and the weights will be big then. It will take from 16 to 20 pounds for 5 fish to get into the top 3. Anyone wanting to watch how the club is doing can log on to centralmainebassers.com and see the results after our tournaments and see some of the members in the club holding some nice bass. Take care my friends and until next time, keep casting, DAVID
