Largemouth BassTechniqueShakey HeadsSeasonSpring (Spawn)StructureDocksCaught all my fish on docks. Docks were moderately shallow. 8-9 ft in the front of the docks. They were all over the docks. Back corners, dock posts, in the middle, etc. Caught most of them on a trick worm but switched to a neko rig towards the end of the day. Caught over 20 and culled multiple times.
SpeciesLargemouth BassTechniqueTexas Rigs (Worming)SeasonSpring (Spawn)StructureStumpsFished a club tournament on Lake Anna during the pouring rain and wind. The weather started poorly, improved slightly around noon, and worsened an hour before weigh-in with a line of severe thunderstorms. I actually got off the water as the storms approached, leaving more than an hour of fishing time on the lake. But, I have had too many close encounters with lightening, and I no longer take chances with it. I caught bass through out the day, but I lost four good fish that would have really helped my weight. Unfortunately, I tried to horse them in, as my 82-year old co-angler had trouble with the net. I would up with a small limit of largemouth, most of whom I caught off of stumps or submerged grassbeds. But, it was still a great day on the water!

I caught several nice bass, like the 4lber pictured, on a variety of soft plastics, including a weightless Yum Dinger and a lightly weighted Strike King Rage Bug. I also caught a few on Neko-rigged Zoom Trick Worm. The accuracy of casts was critical, as most bass did not want to leave the stumps to chase lures away.

Stained water was key to getting these spooky fish to bite. Find the grass and find the bass.
