    I'm guessing by the lack of replies that the answer is no. Nobody has been to CC. The Cabin fever tourney is being held there on March 17, could be 6 inches of snow or 55 and sunny, who knows.

    zero is never much fun..sorry to hear that...i wouldnt think the waters too cold, i would guess the o2 level is a bit off, making the fish suspend around 5 ft. off the bottom in 15 or more f.o.w. Its really tough to target them from shore there this time of year. thanks for the info

    I was wondering if any of you have checked out the Meadowcroft Rockshelter? It is down the road a couple of mile from the lake.

    The tournament is ope to the public, info can be found on the Washington county bassmasters web site. Not sure about how many boats fish it. Im guessing that would depend on the weather.

    What is this rockshelter?

    On the water by 10:30 am., off at 3pm. Thank you god for the constant rain and prevailing winds. Air temp 52,felt more like 42.  Boated 3 bucketmouths, the biggested 5+. Water temps. range between 40 and 42 degrees. 40 at the launch. Caught all fish on rattle trap, yo-yo technic, all fish bit on the fall. Had a few strikes on a spinnerbait. Try to upload pic of big one later. tight lines...

    Bass tourny held there on the 16th, 40+ boats. close to 80 fishermen, biggest bass that I saw weighted was 6.35 monster. Im guessing about 30 fish total some very nice big bass. Water temp in the top column hit 52ish. Better days ahead for my boat ( I hope), I got zilch, nada, 0.

    Scratch that. Got stuck at work, so instead of fishing i'm waiting on commercial invoices for a border crossing. Not as much fun. Report back if anyone got out today.
