Largemouth BassTechniqueUnderspinsSeasonSpring (Pre-Spawn)StructureLedgesFished a local derb and found some pre spawn slobs off a point. Couldn’t get them fire on anything else but a GLF underspin with a gold blade. Ended up winning the derb with 94” or roughly 27lbs. Super sneaky bait setup on a super stingy Conesus.

Jerkbaits along points and steeper banks was successful for smallmouth, although not much size doing this. Largemouth were spread out along docks using standard dock fishing baits (chatterbait, jig, skipping a fluke).
