How do you guys compensate for the effects of extreme weather on lake forage?
Iknow here in Minnesota extreme long ang cold weather have a great effect on bait fish for instants.On some of the more shallow lakes extreme cold can cause large kill offs of fish.Likewise the extreme mild conditions can result in an over abundence of fish available.In Mil Lacs lake last year there was a phanomina were there was not nearly enough forage fish and the Walleye would bite on anything that hit the water. You could boat 30,40,50 or more fish in a very short time.
How is the weather in your region going to effect your catches this year.Will some of the eastern parts that have seen record droughts for several years going to have more water from all the snow ?
How about areas that have gotten record snow or cold further south?
How is this going to effect your tactics and stratagies? Or will it ?
Just curious.
