Yesterday was the maiden voyage of my new front mount side/down scan transducer.  Lots of places around here have hard water so I decided to go to upper Bull Shoals where it rarely freezes it being 4th in a chain of lakes.

The water temp was 43° which is 8° warmer than other lakes.  I cruised around for a while looking at my back scanner and found some schools of fish.  I assumed that they were white bass and that is the only species that I caught.  The first pic is some I drove over.  The other pic is when I dropped the tm and got serious.  I found a bunch of these schools and could pic up one out of everyone but they would quickly move on me and the chase would be on.  I found lots of schools with no bite at all so some of them must have been shad.

Hey Dayne, sweet resolution there !  Did ya spoon em up?

Nope.  I caught them on my itty bitty new plastic baits that are supposed to be for specs.  These were sandies.  I'm gonna try them again on Friday.  It is supposed to be bout 60° by then.

Man that is like looking at a picture!

JM are you sure your ok? 60* where?

Those are some cool pics.
