Flipping hard bottom at the launch ramp and dock pilings at Fountainhead in the morning where I landed 3 fish for 9.5lbs total. Got on the water and we flipped wood on bluff walls next to points. My partner got big fish of the day; a 5lber on a Texas Rig. As the sun peaked in Post Frontal conditions, I moved on to flipping shallow heavy wood in creeks and points while my partner burned a squarebill. Not a ton of bites but we scrambled together a 5 fish limit of 21lbs.
