Got the boat out for the first time yesterday. Headed down to kent park looking for some bass. Fished shallow, deep, and everywhere in between with only a few small fish caught. Wood, rocks, you name it, nothing seemed to hold the bigger fish. The deep turns in the creek channel would hold 1 or 2 but size still wasn’t there.
Large algae bloom going on right now, and lots and lots of dead fish floating right now, mostly bluegills and sunfish. Not sure if winter was that rough on them or if something else is killing them. I am guessing the bass are in a post spawn funk. Water temp is 72 degrees.
