I saw a bass on a bed today...

No shite. She was big too...
Craziest part was it was on the Red River which is the coldest body of water in NW La.
This weather is nice, but I think we'll get another cold snap.
Thoughts?

The phase of the moon and the warmer weather, will be pushing them up. I believe the magic water temp for the spawn is like 55-56 degrees. Did you check that while you were in the area.

The fish in the Red are weird. I've seen them spawn late too. Nothing surprises me there.

I didn't have a temp guage in the boat.
It was in the very back of a pocket way off the main river. So, it was the warmest place you could find.

That being said I caught 12 ranging from a 1 to 4 lbs. in 4 to 7 feet of water that were cruising and hungry.
The one on the bed wouldn't bite.
She was big, looked to be about 6 lbs (considering magnification of the water).

Exactly what I tried but I gave up after about 15 minutes and a dozen or so cast because I was catching 'em good before I found her... had 2 about 4 lbs.... so I just rolled on and kept fishing.
Plus she saw me about 1/2 way through our little session and got a lot more timid. Wind fricked me and blew my boat too close.

Yeah, I never know when to quit. Rec fishing, I could never stay long. Tourneys would make me really sit on a kicker.
