Time to fish

This fisherman is tired of winter, and he is itching to get outdoors and fish no matter the temperature.  He spent the winter working on his hobby of making fishing rods while staring out the window waiting for the weather to break. Now is the time for action.  David was fishing the Fox River below the Montgomery dam, but not catching anything today. Yesterday he caught a walleye, carp, and also accidentally snagged a turtle.  He showed me a couple pictures; the carp was lip hooked on a shallow running jerkbait which in my experience is rare. Stuck my finger in the water and estimated water temp in the high 30s F, with air temp 45 F on a completely overcast morning.  My preference is for it to be a little warmer for fishing.
