Several days after ice out bass started to move in and out of the shallows sometimes holding in remnant submerged weed patches (pond weed and sand grass). After trying horizontal retrieves at various speeds and pauses, started to use a yo-yo retrieve with chatterbait & scent-enhanced craw trailer. Hits and hook-ups occurred when bait was in free-fall and came into contact with weeds. Retrieve drew several hits but only two hook-ups, a 13" & 16.5" bass before another heavy strike frayed line and broke off (I assume a pickerel). Not a bad, quick bank stop while out running errands.

First stop of the night it was me vs a loon and the loon won keeping the fish at bay :) Second stop I was fishing a windblown bank with a chatterbait and spinnerbait, 7 hits, 6 connections (5 chatter, 1 sb) all in ~ 35 minutes around sunset. Bass were holding around remnant submerged brass patches in 2 to 4 feet of water. Nothing huge but still lots of fun
