Spotted BassTechniqueHard JerkbaitsSeasonFallStructureBaitfishFinally! I had myself a day with a jerkbait. I was of course finesse fishing when I saw some birds feeding on a bait ball about 100 feet off shore in about 40 feet do water. So I tied on Rapala Shadow Rap and followed those birds around in the open water, and it was literally a strike on every 3rd or 4th cast... including a nice 2 pounder on my first cast.

I decided on a last-minute hike up to Mormon Ravine out of Rattlesnake Bar. I didn't get up there till about 7:15 pm, so only had about an hour of daylight before I had to head back. Plenty of time for some fun summer time top water action. This was the best one.... almost 2 lbs... but not quite. Man, it's fun to see these bass blow up a top water lure! ...Accidentally caught a big ol' bullfrog too. :)

Took my boat out after work to make sure a gas line repair fixed an issue... and since it did, and I was out there... might as well get my line wet. Super hot 101 degrees, water temp a crazy 93 degrees... and yet the Rage Bug slow bounced at about 20 feet does the trick!

SpeciesLargemouth BassTechniqueTexas Rigs (Worming)SeasonWinterStructureOpen Water/BasinThe weather is crazy and the main body was just too crazy this day, so I walked up and spent a couple hours at Avery's Pond, just above Rattlesnake Bar. What a gem! I was casting out to the middle and slowly popping the Strike King Game Hawg back to the shoreline. Beautiful day out there! Thank you Strike King!
