Dave,
I was on a smaller local lake Sunday afternoon. Surface temps were right at 60. I was back in some coves looking for bait, and did not see any signs of gills on the nest yet.. Might be a little closer on the farm ponds.

Up here in a normal year its usually mid-late May when they bed. This year it definitely will be later. h.h.
