The temps were slowing riseing, this will turn the clock back a few days/weeks. I was looking at 36-37 deg.behind OC. I figure it dropped at least 3-4 degrees just last night. Not good for us guys chewing at the bits waiting for it to happen(bass attack)

Brant Beach/LBI Surf Temp as of 10:00AM
34.5 degree's...

When we have a bad march like we're having & the temps rise late rather than early. Does anybody know if it conversley keeps the fish active longer at the back end of the season????

mch,
Not really, it just delays our start to consistent action in the Spring.
What Happens In The Fall will depend on
How Cold it gets during that time period
and how fast the water temps drop at that
point.. Its all effected by the weather...

Oh well, that sucks I figured it might because this fall into winter the mild temps seemed to keep the Bass around longer.

And That Does Happen, I have seen a mild Fall
Stretch into early Winter and with that Water
Temps Stayed Favoritable Into January and February for Bass Fishing.
The Month of April is Key, Let's Hope For A
Mild One,, But If April is a Cold One It Can
Really Set Things Back For The First Half of
The Season...
