Current Water Temps?

[hawkeye9]

I was out crappie fishing on Friday with my wife. I let another week go by without fishing Kinkaid and was unsure of temps so I left the muskie gear at home. Worked out just fine as we did really well off a main lake point. Fished from 10:30am till a little before 3:00pm and fell just short of both our limits (mostly very nice sized fish as well...all caught on jigs). Actually, we caught a few in the Northend no-wake as well, but they weren't quite as large.

Temps were exactly what Chad said (75-77).

I plan to start fishing in earnest this Thursday. Let's hope for some falling temps for sure, but as much as I can wait for the fish to head shallow the mild weather has been really kinda nice.

Does anyone know how guide-for-a-day went with the MI chapter? Sure hope enough boats were available and it went well.

Thanks for the report Chad.

I think it is going to pick up next week after we get a couple of cool nights. I know that I would rather be fishing for them at the end of October-Early December than the end of Sept-Halloween.
