Oh yeh it was a cold one today ended up catching 3 reds and only one that was of size, water temps never got above 45 degrees everything was caught on swim shads fishing slow slow.
Still a good day on the water hopefully next week it will be better!

10 mph winds with 50 deg. air temp. feels real cold when the water temp. is 45 deg.
That air blowing across the open water is a killer.
