Went out first time this year in Tenn. Temp was 87 water temp 70 does not get any better than that in April. It felt good to get back on the water where I belong.

Played hooky from work today up in Northern Illinois. Air temp was about 82, and water temp was 75.

It was the earliest I have trunked it up north!

Agreed. Last summer when the Saskatchewan river rose like 6 feet (after Calgarys flooded) the water was below 0 (32). Now that was hell.

water temp of 75 in Illinois ? How is that possible when the water near Lubbock TX is 66 ?

I went out for the first time thursday. The weather was 65 and the water 49. Even more happy since my home lake opens today.

I was going by what the PerfectPass in the boat said, I'm not sure how accurate they are. But, it is a very shallow lake we rode on, and the air temp was mid to upper 70's all week.
