Saturday the 14th, partly cloudy conditions with a 2-5mph wind. Temps mid to high 70s. Water temps 70. On flats of roughly 10 to 15 feet targeting rock piles or cuts a slow bouncing neko rig landed my largest fish of the day. The technique was also productive shallow. The bass were not interested in a wacky rigged worm or shakyhead.
