Finally had some fun catching with something other than a wacky rig. Not that I'm complaining....I just like using different tactics and getting them to work. I was using the Cloud 9 Crank bait to search them out on points. And then would move in close and crush with the Zoom Trick Worm on a Texas Rig. I love the Okeechobee Craw pattern here at Bullards. The Spotties can't lay off that sparkly blue back. The water temp up another 5 degrees since two weeks ago...

The spotties are finally moving up to spawn. Dropping a wacky rig with a Yamamoto Sexy Shad Senko right on the shoreline and slow twitching it back was money! I had a 1/16th oz nail weight at the top just to get the right tilt on the Senko. Caught a few on the 6th Sense Provoke as well....but it was wacky rig day at Bullards! And that Lew's Custom Pro is an amazing reel!!!!
