It’s that time of year and a lot of people forget about swimming a worm, one of my favorite ways to catch frye gaurders! I throw this on both a spinning and casting setups. 1/8-3/16 on spinning and up to 3/8 on casting. I should go by too. Stay back off the bank and make long accurate cast around cover and docks. Typically you can pick off more than one fish. The key is to slow roll the bait making sure you stay in contact with the bottom. Hook set wise, reel and set. Tight Lines!

Spots are coming in for their spring spawn. There are some fish chasing and shallow in locations, weather dependent, but fish are on points and humps in numbers. Rocky features on cold mornings do better than straight clay, feeding off the bottom.
