Category: Coffey County

It felt really good to get the boat out for the first trip of the year. We decided to go to Coffey County to fish the hot water. It was a beautiful February day in Kansas with light wind and partly cloudy. I told the boys there would be alot of boats out fishing. Yes, there were when we showed up.  We had a little hard time getting on any of the good spots. Kyle hooked up on his third cast with a really nice bass on a Ned Rig. About 10 minutes later, Nick hooked up with a small bass, but lost it at the boat. We would fish for a couple more hours only catching 4 white bass. We watched a lot fish be caught by other people; I think they were mostly white bass. We left the hot water area and fished main lake riprap. We were able to catch two white bass on suspended jerkbait on the main lake with a water temp at 46 degrees and the hot water was 66 degrees. It was just really nice to go fishing today.
