I have a strategy of enticing some gills in the rivers and creeks I visit this weekend.....Similar to the female Crappie te gills will start looking for these pockets of warmer water even of it's only a couple degrees higher than the majority of the creek or river......the wind can work in your favor on this issue by pushing sun drenched surface water to one bank or another and serving as a thermal layer and drawing in fish in numbers.....Just something to consider if you have marginal water temperatures but sunny skies.....
