    Spinning reel, with a reel and stop movement. Before sunset, the shad was feeding on bugs on the water surface, so the largemouth was taking advantage by smashing the surface.

    I’ve had a great time this week of staycation. I found the white bass /striped bass feeding in early morning. 5:30-7:00 and caught about 40 today. They would hit any small shad like bait. I was using a cotton Cordell white belly black back small square bill. Also Berkeley shallow diving crank bait. Sexy shad is the color of it.
