Thanks for the update Marty.

Regarding the water temps...that water is starting to warm up quick now. Water temps at TPL today are 5 degrees warmer than same day a year ago. Water has warmed up 5 degrees in just the last 4 days. Hit 61* today. http://www.wunderground.com/MAR/buoy.../24/TPLM2.html

FWIW: Solomons guys are catching and roughly 1/2 have not spawned yet.

Better so far then 2010 but no where near 2002 to 2009.

I opened one of my first ones, and she had eggs. I was afraid to open up any of the others; I was afraid of what I may have seen.

63-65* is the magic temp for a few really good spots LTJing...good to hear...

The water temp in the creeks and rivers last March, got into the 60's. The fish did their thing and left. Fish don't spawn at Thomas Point Light.
