Trailer Fixed and I'm back in business. So that meant my first trip out was Bullard's Bar. Still hunting for that lunker...but what a day I had fishing boulders and drop offs. Definitely the hot bait was a Texas Rig using a 3/8 Tungsten weight and Strike King Cut-R worm in the June Bug color. I find that at Bullard's, a blue/purple color works best on any finesse baits, no doubt because those bass like eating the kokanee in that lake. Non stop action. I caught larger fish than my picture attached...but the background shows you why it's such a beautiful lake to fish.

After spending the morning hunting offshore for a legendary lunker Bullard's Bar spotty....no luck there...I headed back in for an afternoon of working the shoreline with a trusty 5" Yamamoto Senko on a Texas Rig. I was cherry picking points and ledges, and also spent some time in a couple coves that offered some tree cover. I would post up about 20 feet off shore, and cast right to about 2 feet deep. Then a slow , twitchy retrieve would do the trick. It was another epic day out on my favorite lake!
