Spotted bass were blowing up on shad. Tossed out the gunfish and immediately caught a fish. Missed the next one and changed over to the showerblows which kept the bait in the stroke zone longer. This change resulted in several more fish.

The Okashira screwhead jig is a great way to catch really pressured fish. I was using it as a follow up lure, but it definitely shines on its own. When they stop eating a jerk bait or a crank, but you can still see fish, give this jig a shot.
