Most often once we hit summer our waters have warmed up considerably from what we know as cold water . Fishing during cold water or water under 60 degrees usually requires smaller baits to be productive. The fish have metabolisms that are moving at a snails pace.

Weekly Fishing Tip
Hard Water Coming
Seasons are changing quickly and many have done or are putting their summer fishing items away and getting ready for winter. Don't be unprepared when that hard water season finally comes and start getting your gear ready now. Reels should be lubed and new line put on; rods need to have their eyelets inspected for imperfections. Augers need to have their blades sharpened and also motors ran and tuned up. Batteries all need to be charged and ready so that first trip to the ice will be a fun and productive one.
Weekly Hunting Tip
Turkey Season Coming Soon
With spring in the air and the smell of new growth in the woods, the spring turkey season is right around the corner. Now is a great time to start your spring turkey scouting and get a feel as to where and when the turkey's are using your favorite hunting areas. Looking for scratchings and tracks in the sand and fresh mud are great signs to see if they are using certain areas. Doing some locating calling as well will give you a great idea as to how many Tom's are around and this will also let you scope out areas for possible ambush locations once the season comes. Spring is always a good time to be in the woods as everything looks fresh and new once again.
