| I have been checking my lake maps for the spring that seems so close yet so far away. Where do you focus on fishing in the spring and early summer? What type of structure? What type of lures have produced for you in the past? I look forward to hearing all of your ideas! Thanks everyone, it was a great year this year! |

| I know that I am not the only one at home checking my lake maps for the spring. There has to be others out there. What are your thoughts for the upcoming spring? Where are you targeting? What lures?
I know there are a lot of you thinking about this right now! |

I always start out my spring on the sandy flats or around rock. Something that will absorb the sun's heat and warm the water.
I also seem to have the most luck between the hours of 10:00am ~ 2:00pm.
As far as baits I like to use Phantoms or small crank/twitchbaits.
I have also had good results SLOW rolling Voodoo Tail Spinnerbaits.
Good luck this spring! |

| I love maps and read them all year long!!!!!
I'm always looking and dreaming of the next Lake X, and scouring my regular waters for that "diamond in the rough" spot that everyone has been overlooking for decades.
As for what I look for in spring locations.... that depends on the type of water. If it is a shallow, dark lake I will often look for inlets and potential spanwing areas. Cisco Based lakes I will be looking for certain elements in the basin for some early season suspendos.
Never stop studying those maps!!

| Thanks for the replies so far. I tend to search the sandy shallow areas with patchy weed cover myself. Mostly throwing smaller baits. Anyone ever throw big baits in the spring? Fast or slow? I tend to go slow in the spring, but have heard of others burning bucktails to start the season. |
