This was the OSU Charity tournament. The water temps were low, and you had to work for the fish. We threw the Zman TRD Football heads with the black and blue tickler as well as cut down finesse worms. The bass were all through the docks and tight to rocks or cover.

Fished a benefit open for The Ohio State Bass Fishing team on Buckeye lake this past Saturday. Water was stained and warm. 63 at take off 68 at weigh in. Sunny and 57 at take off, pushing 80 at weigh-in. Managed 3 keepers for 4.19lbs. They hit jackhammers and spinner baits for us early on rock around docks in canals. 1st place was 15 and some change, 2nd-5th we’re all between 10-11 lbs. Apparently we missed the bite somewhere, lol. Still had fun day on water for a good cause.

Spent this Saturday at Buckeye. Faced a very tough bite however was able to find success in a Vision 110 and in a drop shot with a roboworm dipped in chartreuse dye. I was able to get the most bites using both of these techniques on main lake points. As the day went on and the sun seated down on the rocks, I imagined the fish may push up on rock walls to try and warm up, and I was correct. I was throwing a rapala DT-6 parallel to these rock walls and was able to find my biggest fish of the day doing this. I faced very murky water conditions so I made sure to throw very bright and attracting baits.

The Saugeye were stacked up in the canals. The wanted something small and black. The z-man TRD in black and blue was the ticket. To get through the rocks better, use the TRD football heads. Toss up close to the bank and drag it back. Make sure you keep contact with the bottom and hold on

Great spot for bluegill and crappie as well. I caught about 30 fish. Also catfish in that mix. Rip them lips anglers!

Water visibility was about 14". Many of the bass were just coming off the nest. They were in a feeding frenzy. If you got the spinner bait near them, they crushed it. Maybe even guarding fry.
