Out on the lake the 3rd of January. Man was it slow. Too cold and wet. Fished for an hour and a half with one bite, but nothing to show for it. This lake being a year round lake gets really hot a couple weeks before opening day. Last year I had limits almost every day I went out there for a couple of weeks. Even had several limits within 20-30 minutes. Watched one guy get a limit in 15 minutes!! Typically the fish run 8-10 inches but had several to 14. If you need somewhere to go before opening day give it a try, maybe it will be as good as last year.
