They were choking bluegill. Caught this big one @ 18 inches long. Also caught 5 others from 12-14 inches. Was a good day on the water. Largest on this body of water until now was 16.5 inches. So, was shocked with this one. Original chatterbait, but I made my own skirt after the original wore out. There are big ones in there but they are hard to catch.

Only one for the day. Nailed. Fluke just off the bank in about 2ft of water. Bass are chasing bait fish. Hard to get them to target a bait when there are so many bait fish for them to eat.

Stoking the blade with a yo-yo retrieve. Seemed to work. Was a one-off fish and only caught the single from the bank. No Kayak his time around. Just junk fishing.
