Going to waste some time out on the chain tomorrow and wondering if water temps are sucker-suitable.

Thanks!

Was out on Wednesday afternoon/night trying to drown a couple, believe
the water temp was right around 60 degrees. Sucker's held up for the two
to three hrs. we were out. Just wish a knew which end of the rod the sucker
was on. 8 bucks a pop & didn't get a whiff. Fox is fishing mighty tough for
us this fall. Good luck out there.

Last wed 60* all over sun 10/17 58*. Been close to 40hours since I have seen a fish and I normally see or catch a fish every outing. Dragged a sucker for 5 hours with out a sniff but it was still kicking when we packed up.

Only one blind on the northern lakes that I noticed. Grass lake is full of them.
