Larry Hemphill has said in his 'Trophy Bass' presentations that the biggest females tend to spawn earliest, and that they have often 'done their duty' before the end of February. So, yes, I can't say I'd be surprised to spot some bedding fish right now -- especially with a spread of days with stable, sunny weather. You know their bellies are swelling to their max, in any case, whether they're quite ready to go yet or not.

They're out there waitin' for ya, boys! Time to wave a HOOK in their faces!

Way to go on that 6'er @ Uvas, Andy! I'll have to try that lake out sometime! (I've actually casted around from shore once or twice there, but have never taken my k'boat out). The 'Fish Sniffer' recently recommended Uvas over even Calero & Anderson, which kind of surprised me. I guess I'll have to check it out!
(The SCVWD website puts it at around 20% capacity right now -- that oughtta put the fish a little closer together now, too! :-) )
