The largemouth have begun their move shallow to spawn. After working the spawning areas with reaction baits and not getting many bites, I decided to slow and pitch to visible beds with a strike king rage bug and started to land several fish. Biggest was this 5 pounder who inhaled my bait as soon as it dropped near her. She gave me a nice battle. Love this time of year.

Slow dragging the jig across a point. Some submerged vegetation. Working the jig by long sweeps of the rod. Dragging the jig as if dragging a Carolina Rig. Heavy wind blowing towards the bank I was fishing on

The bass have finally made their way up to their spawning areas and my usual go to, the strike king rage bug has the ticket again. This is without question, my favorite time of year. I'm looking forward to more productive outings in the weeks to come.
