Fishing from the bank at a local park, the online app says water is at 62, I think it’s colder. The fish are in 6-8 foot of water near shore, chasing perch, I had been getting lick on the Whopper plopper, but switched to a blade bait when it slowed. Was pulling this above and through the submerged grass, yo-yo style, and he hit it on the fall.

Skipping under docks and pitching between boat lifts. Action was consistent all morning. Lots of Rock Bass but the TRD elastic holds up great! The further back you can skip the better. Fish were aggressive! They would even hit on the reel back in so go slowly when reeling back.
