Fishing Mattawoman Creek off of the Potomac River. Started out at first light throwing War Eagle buzzbaits with Yum Tip toads in place of the skirt. We were retrieving the the buzz baits through the tops of Lilly pads on a high outgoing tide and it produced well.

Great hook to flip around grass patches and laydown with a creature or beaver-style bait. The fluoro bait keeper is tops and these hooks are very affordable. Hook does not bend out on 17-20# fluoro and the points stay sharp!
