It was a very tough day of fishing. We had 47 Kayaks at the event and less than 20 people caught fish. I managed 3 fish but really had to work for them.

The bass are starting their fall feeding. I was able to find some schools of bass in moderately deep water. You have to let the spoon flutter all the way to the bottom with a semi slack line. once on the bottom, give the line two quick jerks and let it flutter back down.

The bass are staging up for the fall and heading into Winter. The water is just starting to cool down. The bite was not aggressive and you had to pay attention and feel for the tick. It was a slow cadence of 2 jerks and a long pause. Start reeling for a couple of handle turns and then 3 jerks with a pause. You may feel a very slight tick or the rod would just load up when you started reeling again. The megabass hooks and amazing and super sticky.
