The color red is coming! Spawning is approaching. The thump thump of the big blade helps attract the bass in the semi dirty water but this guy was hungry.

Water was murky but getting close to clearing up. 852 did a wonderful job keeping the fish out of the lay downs and Vanford had enough torque to pull out the fish from the debris. Mastiff fluoro held up with no nicks after fighting this fish.

Delta is finally warming up! The underspin chartreuse was the bait of choice. Water clarity is about 12”. The new mastiff fluorocarbon worked beautifully.
