Son woke me up and wanted to hit the bank before school. Turned out to be a great idea. 2 small, plus this nice one. 3 fish and at school by 7:50. MeggaBass PopX was getting the most strikes. Perch. I had a couple swipes at a bone Rebel popper. No hook ups though. Tight lines y’all !

I feel like I’m beating a dead horse here, but submerged grass is a key, from the bank, 6-8 feet of water. No weight, just the senko and a size 3/0

Largemouth BassTechniqueWacky RigsSeasonSpring (Spawn)StructureDocksMy usual go-to. Caught in the first cast! Really only good for one fish or two so I packed up after 15 min of casting and called it good. 6’8 M-XF Spinning rod for precision and quick hook setting speed. 12lb braid to 8lb fluoro. Go lighter on braid and fluoro (10lb to 6lb) if you are fishing waters with more visibility and less structure to get snagged on.

ROUGH day of fishing 05/30/22 on Lake Washington. wacky rig wasn't doing it so had to go back to ol' reliable and sure enough caught one within the next 1-2 casts underneath the dock that i had been working for a bit. THIS IS A MUST IF YOU'RE NEW TO BASS FISHING. it's meant for numbers, not size, and a solid boost of morale.
