    I started out throwing a Bitters Vibes in Blueberry paired with a 1/4 0z. Flat Out Tungsten Original and a 5/0 Owner Offset Hook on 20# K9 Fishing Products Pro Series Flourocarbon and a Denali AttaX 7' 4" Heavy power Fast action Casting Rod paired with a Quantum Smoke S3 8.1:1 Gear Ratio Reel. I didn't have any success early on so I decided to make the switch to a Bill Lewis Lures 1/2 oz. Rat-L-Trap in Silverado. I was throwing this on a Denali Kovert 7' 2" Medium Heavy power Moderate Fast action Casting Rod paired with a Quantum Energy 7.3:1 gear ratio Casting Reel with 17# K9 Fishing Products Pro Series Flourocarbon. I caught several bass, as well as two quality black crappie, one that measured 14.5" and the other just over 13.5". As the sun broke through the clouds I began punching the Hydrilla matts, but didn't have any success.

    Spent the morning fishing Orange Lake. A vast majority of the lake is topped out Hydrilla. I started out the morning throwing a Bitters Bait and Tackle 6" Swim Worm in Blueberry paired with a 5/0 Owner Offset Hook on 20# K9 Fishing Products "8" Strand Braid. Caught several fish throwing along inside points of the Hydrilla matts early in the morning. As the sun cleared the tops of the trees, I switched to flipping a texas rig in the matts themselves because I knew the sun would position the fish under the matts. My flipping setup consisted of a Denali AttaX 7' 4" Heavy power Fast action Casting Rod paired with a Quantum Smoke S3 8.1:1 gear ration Casting Reel with 60# K9 Fishing Products "8" Strand Braid. I was using a Flat Out Tungsten Original 3/4 oz., with a 4/0 VMC Heavy Duty Flipping Hook and my bait of choice lately has been the Bass Addiction Gear Mat Craw in Uncle Doug's Special. Caught two quality fishing flipping the mats with this exact setup.
