My fishing buddy Dave and I went back to Belews Lake yesterday, air temp was high 30's when we arrived, only got to 46', water was 53-54 degrees right by the ramp, shad was so thick the depth finder kept going from 20-25' (actual depth) to 5' while sitting still.
We tried to keep track but lost count, so we conservatively estimate we caught 50+ spotted bass, 2 largemouth bass, and one crappie. No huge ones, but several decent ones in the 16-17.5 inch range. There was one other guy fishing the same spot, he had at least 30 more...it was a pretty epic day for January around here.
