Bass were very active in the shallows but still have not seen very many of the big females there. With this warm-up the bass will definitely be more active. Unfortunately a lot of the backwaters I fished already had a lot of algae so that made fishing a little tougher. All of the bass I caught were on white color baits. With the Megabass swimbait being a favorite.
