Grass is growing again so it's time to use a swim jig. I Iike to add a craw trailer with lots of movement. I was catching small bass on a small crankbait, but wanted to target some bigger bass I saw swimming by. So I scaled up to a 4inch craw on a swim jig to entice them. Got a couple to chase and one finally commited and took the jig on the bottom in about 4 feet of water. When the babies are biting, scale up!

Baby bass and bluegills were hugging the shallows, eating tadpoles. Caught a few bass close to the bank, but I was looking for the big ones. Started to cast further out and after a few minutes, I landed this really nice 3 lb bass. The water was stained and the bottom full of muck. I knew a Texas rig would just gather clumps, so a Wacky rig was the better choice. In south Florida, junebug (purple/Emerald flake) is a good producer of bites.
