Fantastic Day had 15.5 lbs came super close need to cull a 2lber I could not get rid of all day ugh !!!! But we Scraped all we had and target bass in all the 10 foot flats it was a blast we would use a moving bait and then we would hunker down once we would find the area the school of bass was. It switched when the wind picked up and sun came out lights out ! They were eating the living snot out of the shad and even had shad in my live well when I was cleaning it back out after the Derb. These fish are staging infall ways and bits post and pre it is wack but a fun bite keep your head up you never know when the fish will turn on. We had nothing till 11 then sacked up and culled up 7 pounds to anchor our our with a 5.25 pictured in my right hand. A 3/4 oz trap late in any color 1knock or any knock produced the key bites we needed to finish 49th out of 250 !

Water temp pushing high 60s at some points during the day, when it was sunny out got on a bite on the southern end of Guntersville pitching a drop shot into the holes in the eelgrass marked on side imaging. The key was to find eelgrass mixed with some healthy coontail and if milfoil was mixed in as well it was a bonus. Aarons pro magic in the 4.5 size was the best drop shot worm of the day.

Fish are in all stages of the spawn. We were targeting post spawn fish that had already moved out to the ledges. Used the Aqua Vu to find schools with bigger fish in them. Lots of fish to be caught up shallow with a wacky worm, most were in the 2-3lb range though. We ended up sitting on one school all day and weighed in 21lbs 3oz which put us in 6th place out of 250 boats.

Was very skeptical on this when I bought them after hearing the buzz the past couple of years, seemed kinda corny to me. Oh boy was I wrong real wrong. I used a 76 mh rod to make bomb casts these things are heavy, this allowed me to make casts into areas were fish could not hear my ultrex. I would then slowly reel it in and let in drop in areas kinda imagine reeling in a hair jig 10x slowing same concept. It was 98% weedless as well as more durable than I thought but defiantly bring superglue these puppies are expensive. Caught some big mommas on it and see these being a very popular product this season. Also with a chewed up shoulder from wrestling these are nice as they don't wear on you as a regular bait you would Texas rig and have to rip out of the weeds !
