Post cold front fishing was on fire! Had a front move through the night before. Water temp was 52F, air temp was 36F. Wind was 10-15 mph out of the north. Fishing in 50-60' of water, running the minimax parallel to the bank as slow as you could make a 8.2 speed reel go produced bite after bite.

Started fishing later in the day once air temp got up, but banging the banks in 10 feet of water, throwing right up on the bank caught a bunch of bass. Bunch of 12-13" and then some 15-16" class bass. Had one small mouth blow up on a Spook Boyo on a main lake point

Find the shad, find the fish! I ran my jack hammer parallel to ledges and bluff walls in 40' of water, every time I saw bait balls on the graph. Most of the time, the strikes came on bluff walls where the creek channel would swing in to it. I tried to keep my lure in the 10-15' range, reeling as slow as I could, yo-yoing the bait.
SpeciesLargemouth BassTechniqueSoft Body Swimbaits (Small/Medium)SeasonWinterStructureStanding TimberClear water, calm wind, bluebird sky. Was 60 degrees outside water temp 55. Caught fish up shallow with jerkbait and lipless. All caught around standing timber in water and pockets on points on underspin.
Weston DeanBronze AmbassadorSpeciesLargemouth BassTechniqueShakey HeadsSeasonSpring (Pre-Spawn)StructureBrush PilesFished from early morning till about noon. No monsters, best coming at around 2.5lbs. Roboworm with the Picasso head produced around 20 fish total. These Picasso heads use Gamakatsu hooks and they stayed very sharp. The tungsten keeps sensitivity up, was using 10lb fluorocarbon. Shaky heads are an underrated bait on Greers, most anglers power fish then give up. They are there, finesse is the key. Would also suggest the same worm but on a dropshot or Texas rig.

Throwing the minimax nearly up on the bank at the middle to the back of coves off of main lakes produced some phenomenal fishing. Using the Zman Steakz in "The Deal" color, produced bite after bite. A 3/8 War Eagle double willow blade in spot remover also produced bites in the same area.
