The adipose fin is a small fin on top and near the fish’s tail.
Drought, Weather Affecting Bass Patterns
- Details
By Kevin VanDam
Kevin VanDamThe nation is in a severe drought and it’s affecting the lakes around southern Michigan.
We’ve been dealing with falling lake levels and a lack of sufficient rainfall for several weeks now. Farmers are still irrigating heavily and the bottom is falling out of the water table which also affects our lakes. The water table at my house fell 1½ feet over the past week!
In the meantime our fish are losing valuable shallow water habitat. You can still catch some fish shallow, but the bigger fish are still deeper.
Everything is getting stressed and the fish are starting to show it.
