Newman Lake is starting to pop. Those water temps are creeping up toward 50° where the fish get really active. Find some submerged structure (logs, rock piles, humps) and throw this specific Duo Realis. It is hands down the most productive jerkbait I’ve ever thrown. Way more productive than the Vision 110. Just use a jerk, jerk, pause (3 second) presentation. You’ll be on the fish in no time!

The water temps have finally hit 50°, so where are all the fish? Early spring largemouth will make runs into the shallows during the early morning hours, or during the evening. Outside of those times, they will often pull back to weed lines and look for wandering baitfish. Use a 1/2 oz Megabass SV-3 Double Willow Spinnerbait in Wagasaki to work the weed lines during the day and the shallows during low light hours. No need to put a trailer on the SV-3. Just slow roll it near the bottom. You’ll be on ‘’em in no time.
