    Spent the day trying to find staging bass. Picked off a couple around some isolated stumps with a jig then at the end of the day while making my way back to the launch, I was power fishing a deep diving crank around the outside sections of standing timber when I picked off this nice 4lb smallie. Can’t wait for more to make their way up. My favorite time of year

    The strike king rage bug was all the rage this day as every fish caught was caught flipping one in staging areas throughout the day. Despite very many attempts to catch them with other techniques, the bass only seemed to want a Texas rigged rage bug. Can't say enough about my success and confidence with this bait.

    The largemouth have begun their move shallow to spawn. After working the spawning areas with reaction baits and not getting many bites, I decided to slow and pitch to visible beds with a strike king rage bug and started to land several fish. Biggest was this 5 pounder who inhaled my bait as soon as it dropped near her. She gave me a nice battle. Love this time of year.
