Fantastic day out there. I guess the lake is in post spawn, so they're moving away from the edge and starting to eat again. I caught my larger fish on 6th Sense C15 Crank Bait. But as you can see from my picture, I was also hooking into some nice ones with a 6th Sense Jig head paired with a Divine Swimbait in Ghose Ice Minnow. For someone who spends a lot of time finesse fishing, it was so fun to power fish with those baits. And I'll say it again. The Shimano Mastiff Flourocarbon is bullet proof. I had that line scraping rock all day and never had a problem!

Had to go way up river to get away from the Memorial Day wake boarders....ugh! The lake is just about at 100% capacity and with so much new dirt underwater, the water was as muddy as I've ever seen it. So I had to adjust to dark colors to break thru. The bass were definitely up on shore and they weren't really responding to reaction baits...So bring in the wacky rig using a Midnight Senko. That did the trick and I was catching all day long. Had a blast....as usual.
