Fishing in March

[CBR1000rr]

Looks like the next couple of days are going to be in the 60's and my min objective is to put a lure in the water.

It has been a few years since I have been serious about fishing so....... Any suggestions for bass? I know they will be slow and deep (that's what she said). I plan on working a few senkos but I'm open to suggestions.

You might consider working a Zoom lizard r-e-a-l slowly along south-facing rock ledges later in the afternoons. The sun is starting to get enough angle on it to heat these underwater ledges and draw fish at this time of year, and it's proven a good strategy for me. Good luck with whatever you try!

The first trick will be to find water and not ice. For that I assume you'll be looking at a river?

Yea i'm not going out on my boat anytime soon. I don't feel like having to hire a coast guard ice breaker just to fish deep water crappies.

Honestly, I hadn't considered the ice. On the way home, I took the opportunity to drive by the intended target. Needless to say, I won't be fishing tomorrow.

I fished our pond here in Greene County yesterday. There was a lot of bass trolling the north bank, but they weren't eating anything....I even bounced a live nightcrawler off ones nose and it wouldn't eat! Checked Greene-Sullivan State Forest a couple days ago and some of the pits were open and there were boats on the water.

I'd say give the crappie a try. I'm a die hard bassfisherman, but I'm going out to try to catch some crappie tomorrow.

I got my first LMB of the year throwing a jerkbait. He didn't put up much of a fight.

My only question is where will I set up the shanty if it is windy.
