So this front came in super strong. Winds blowing 10-20mph. Blue bird skies and air temps around 49. This is cold for our FL bass. I started out throwing a lucky craft LV500 around local docks and points having great luck in morning. As the day went out I switch to a megabass SV3 1/2oz spinnerbait and got my largest out of the day 4lbs. Once again targeting docks, points, and drop offs. Surprisingly the fish were very active and aggressive. Smoking both the LV500 and spinnerbait. I also played around throwing a xzone lures swammer ( 309 color )with a hogfarmer underspin with great success also. I suspect there's still plenty of bass getting ready to spawn and a majority of them caught today where super fat. Next few days should be even better as temps rise again.
