fishing sunken vegetation off the bank and on flats. Throwing 3/8 strike king tour grade tandem willow leaf in mouse pattern. Using 7'1 Gloomis GLX 853 rod, 6:3 tatula sv reel, 15lb seagar invizx line. Long casts and using moderate retrieve. Just wanted to keep the spinnerbait ticking the top of the grass. Caught lots of fish and greatest thing was water was clear so you could see almost every strike. Even had a small musky come up and just miss the spinnerbait. Great day on the water!
