Well...we had to pull out the entire arsenal this day. The bass were all over the place. Some where up in the shallows, above ledges, some were down on the bottom at the base of ledges and they were still in water column, as the 6th Sense Provoke showed us. First time using the Z-Man micro finesse set up and glad we did. On a day that we truly used everything we had, that was the hot bait of the day. It felt strange going so light and small....but the lightweight rod and reel set up made a 2lb Spottie feel like a 4 pounder. Lot's a fun!

I had so much fun the day before, I had to come back to see if I could repeat. And although the numbers weren't quite as high as yesterday, (maybe cuz of more wind, colder temps?) I still caught a ton and I got into a few big'ns.... I'll take that trade any day! I truly can't say enough about that Lew's Custom Pro reel. If you're thinking about upgrading your reel, you really need to consider this one! It puts the rest of my reels to shame. And love the action on that 6th Sense Provoke! Super fun weekend on my favorite lake within 100 miles of my home.

What a day! Cold, cloudy, rainy,...couldn't have been better! I discovered that if you set up on a point that extended out into the water, at about 30 feet depth and cast across the ridge line, it felt like a sure thing. I was on one point for over an hour and caught 8 from that one spot. With that Lew's Custom Pro (wish I had one of these on every rod I own) and the Shimano Mastiff Flouro, I could cast a country mile. Just check out the belly on that Spottie! Best day ever with a Jerk Bait.
