I've been using Geecrack baits for a couple years now and they never disappoint. I always manage to catch fish on their baits. I mainly like to free rig these baits or jika rig them. They get chomped!

Was out catching some bass when this random walleye slammed a jackhammer. Absolutely blew my mind as I've not really seen or heard of anyone catching walleye on this lake.

Caught them pretty good today on moving baits. Key areas had rock or early vegetation. The key technique was bottom contact with whatever presentation I was using. The slime/algae hasn’t come on strong yet, so that could be a factor relatively soon.

Got out after some bass and the pike were active as well. Really liking the Shimano Mastiff line. It gets the job done.

Hit the lake in the afternoon around 2 pm. I noticed most of the resident boats already gone from their docks and quite a few docks already removed from the water. Decided to try the chatter bite anyhow. Skipping and pitching docks and boat lifts. The bite was decent. I lost a few but that's fishing.

Got out on the lake on my faithful Hobie Outback. Upon launching my down rudder line broke. I made the best of it using my paddle. I spent the morning skipping docks as usual. Who doesn't like skipping docks right!? Initially I followed behind a boater but I quickly figured out he knew his stuff because I wasn't finding any fish left over. So I headed across the lake to one of my favorite docks to find it gone. The only things left were the boat lift and sailboat lift. I made a cast across the front of the boat lift and was rewarded with my first fish of the day. Also my biggest at 21". I caught 11 more bass until I left around noon. All skipping docks. If you haven't tried it I highly recommend it.

Had a blast today casting zman jackhammer 3/8 black and blue. Spooled up a new baitcaster with Sufix 832 hi viz neon green 20 lb test last night. Absolutely loved it! It handled the bass and pike on this lake no problem
