Brush Piles
Flipping into brush piles gave a pretty consistent bite this week. The bass were pretty aggressive and would usually hit right away. Fished mostly backwaters with the average depth being 2-3 feet. Black and Blue Flake Rage Bugs were the go-to with a 1/4 oz tungsten flipping weight and 4/0 Owner EWG hook.
