Picked up 15 or so 10-12 inch bass on the jerk bait and a senko. The small guys were biting. I seen no bass in the shallows looking for spawning areas even though the water temperature was right on. We had a major front with a cool down coming that night. Probably had an effect on the big fish moving up.

Went in the afternoon for a few hours after work. Thought the fish were moving up to Spawn but they were not moving up. No fish were caught in less than 8 foot of water. Caught about 8 or 9 smaller bass on the Senko. Not a lot of action I did see one bed, but no fish on it. Water clarity was about 6-8 feet.

CRUSHED the Bass today on the Stike King Tri-Wing Buzz bait in charteuse and blue color. Fishing early morning and hitting all the primary points and secondary points. Caught several over 4lbs, 5lbs was the biggest. Varying the retrieve from slow to fast attracked the strike. The fish are moving back to secondary points, the water tempature has dropped drastically in the past 10 days.
