Water Temperature Water temperature is the primary indicator of bass activity levels in early spring and is a direct factor in how fast you should present your baits: Below 45F : Extremely slow presentations with minimal movement 45-52F : Moderate retrieve speeds with occasional pauses Above 52F : More aggressive presentations become viable, especially during warm afternoons Water temperatures can vary significantly within the same body of water

The narrow spool design helps keep the reel balanced over the rod, which improves comfort and control when jigging or fighting fish

Tyler uses various retrieval speeds until he has honed in on what the fish want that particular day, citing that some days they dont want the lure to ever stop moving, and sometimes he will let it sit three to five seconds before bringing it back to life again with another erratic twitch

The exact timing depends on the type of winter and spring we had that year
