Was fishing the deepest parts of the docks 7 to 9 feet next to vegetation. Was using Billy Rub ball shad in pink from 3 to 5 feet down under a bobber slowly jigging it.

The weather was very cold, we were using all sorts of bait they were not biting. I finally put a rabbit hair jig and it was lights out. The key color is orange they love that color. We caught a few 10" but mostly they were all 11" and 12". We were there from 6am to about 11am. We had a blast!
