Fished Saturday. Water temps 50-52 almost everywhere. A few isolated spots with 53, but few and far between. Blue bird skies, winds west 12-15. I threw a green pumpkin baby brush hog, Tennessee shad rattle-trap, crawdad speed trap and two different secret weapon spinnerbaits (threadfin with Colorado and baby bass with willow). I found no pattern at all. I tried Neabsco, Mallows Bay, Chickamuxen and Mattawoman. I got a couple dinks and 3 keepers (all less than 16") - 2 of the 3 on the spinnerbaits. Nothing at all on the speed trap or rattle-trap. But no real pattern. Water was stained and muddy everywhere, visibility less than a foot. The creeks are heavily silted and you really have to be careful in the backs, you can run out of water places that used to be shallow but safe.
