Caught this largemouth and a couple smalliies on the Yamamoto 6" Senko. Good enough for 2nd place in Monday Kayak League. Tried smaller baits but they wanted more for their effort.

The bite was on last weekend! Throwing a Z-Man Jackhammer chatterbait with a Keitech Fat Swing Impact paddle tail. They really starting crushing it after I dipped the tail in J.J.'s Magic Dippin' Dye!
