I tipped today with live minnows for these fish and many others in front of an advancing cold front.......Water temperatures ranged between 55 to 58 and the fish are really ready to advance on the shallows....We get lots of wind tides from winter storms so the fish will get messed up a bit over the next couple days but the next warm up should be special.....
