Smallmouth BassTechniqueInline SpinnersSeasonSpring (Pre-Spawn)StructureBaitfishFirst bank fish of the season. Nothing Big, But they are in close and hitting moving baits finally. Three males all hit the Vibrax spinner. Fish seem to like the 8-10 foot depth

Cast along and under docks and get ready! Smallies were smashing these. Bring lots of keitechs cause you’ll catch smallies, rock bass and largies!

Largemouth BassTechniqueSpinnerbaitsSeasonSpring (Spawn)StructureDocksCaught around wood piles and brush in 2-3 feet of water. Same spot as my last catch (around the dock). Still surprised how sharp and durable this spinner bait is. Smacked it a couple times on the dock skipping underneath and it held strong.

Another lunch trip casting from the bank. The fish are easy to find this time of year. Caught fish throwing the 6th sense speed glide in Gill. A custom 3.75 perch glide from Forbitten Baits. Also Might still be available from Dark Horse Tackle site. The good old reliable, a Texas Rig-Watermelon Black flake 5” senko On a 4/0 Mustad EWG. Weightless. I pinch, rub and twist the whole worm, just short of breaking it. Take all the glossy look off.

Bank fishing Local Parks on the east side. Fish were cruising the grass lines near the boulder walls, and gravel area of the beach. Spin Rod, med, fast, 8lb InvizX, I use a 1/6 bullet weight, no stopper. To a Texas rigged 5” baby bass senko. Slow reel dragging the bottom, it feels like a grass snag till they, tap tap tap, reel down until they start to try and pull the other way, then set the hook with a sweep, hard set popping the rod caused a few misses before I figured it out. They almost set the hook for you, you just give it that last bit and a hard reel. Winner of the Shane Flint outdoors west division. #SFOBIGBASS 2023

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 !
