It has been a long and unseasonably wet winter here in Texas. We saw temps in the teens, all the way into high 70’s on Christmas day! Now that winter is on its’ way out and hopefully spring is on its’ way (March 20 is official first day). February and March the the months to get the females that are full of eggs and will be in shallower waters. Some bass will be in pre-spawn, some in spawn and some even in post spawn.
These big females will be getting fatter and heavier every day until they spawn. There are a few different strategies to target these big Pre-Spawn females and you approach them totally different.
I know there will still be mornings that are well below freezing. But it will warm up throughout the day and bass being cold-blooded will start to move about more and more. So figure out which strategy best fits you and try to catch these Pre-Spawn bass at their heaviest weights of the year.
