Getting off the first break was key and pitching the Ned rig so it just barely hopped out of the cabbage to a cleaner bottom. Slow was the name of the game most of the bites came completely deadstick. Just reeling up to weight in the line. 12-14 foot was our benchmark depth.

I fished a tournament on this day pitting the three Brained area bass clubs against one another. I am a non-boater in the Baxter Bass Snatcher Club. My boater was from the Range Bassmasters and has had a lot of success on Mission. We didn’t go far from the launch. I was catching bass almost immediately on the black/blue Powebait Bunker Hawg I had ordered from Omnia a few days previously. I was culling 45-minutes into the day and had my big bass of the day(3/13). My boater just wasn’t getting any bites. After about an hour on the first spot we took a short run to his other juice. He got a couple of bass there and I culled up with a 2lb fish. We then ran some reeds. I got a quality cull on a frog fish. Unfortunately, that was the last frog bite I got. I had a long lull from 10:30 to 2:30. In the final hour I got a couple of quality upgrades on the Big Blade Chatterbait..My fish weighed 13lbs 7oz and was tied with a Snatcher for the 7th best, but I lost the tie breaker. The Bass Snatchers came out on top by a pretty good margin.
