lilli is getting much better! water is at 64 degrees - despite the draw down to work on the derby dam there are fish to be had in coves and on the flats -- fished yesterday afternoon into the night! -- threw NOTHING but top water - poppers and rapalas - 4 nice smallies - 3 lrgs 20 to 21 inches and a bunch of small pike! (they were the most fun of all!  ) |

Nice catches! I hope to hit Lilly during the week. But why would Lilly be drawn down for work on the Derby Dam? Did they start the work on the State Boat Launch on Lilly maybe?

The water temperature is 64 degrees? Are you sure? I haven't seen anything even close to that warm, yet.

We were on Bantam Friday and it was in the upper 50's. Saltonstall was the same.

I was on Batterson Park Pond from 1:15 pm to 4:30 pm, today. When I launched, the water temperature was 66 degrees!  It dropped to 63 degrees by the time I got off of the water. I can't believe how much a couple of days of warm weather could warm the water.

Your right! They lowered Derby and Lilly by 3 feet. I wish I knew earlier! I would have went to Pink House Cove and retrieved my 55lb thrust elect.
