North banks are a must fish in early spring. Especially with old grass mats. Grass mats absorb heat from the sun and they subsequently attract fish. If the mats are too thick I throw a swim jig and I throw a spinnerbait where I can. A Spinnerbait will usually get bigger bites but without a swim jig your presenting a bait to a fish you otherwise wouldn’t have.

Omnia report Is the early summer the red ear move up to spawn. A small jig head with a juicy plastic is one of my favorite ways to target these fish. With a fast rod like the one I have linked above are great. The fast tip allows you to pop your rod and break your jig free of the weeds. I choose to use the under spin in this application because with the light jig head the blade adds a little extra resistance. This helps you keep your jig head submerged.
