May 6–Back in the spring I caught another bonus walleye on a spinnerbait! It was right up under a small dock in about a foot and a half of water. I caught it while flipping spinnerbaits at the retaining walls in a bass tournament.

These Fox Chain largemouth wanted a SLOW rolled spinnerbait right before the spawn. Weather was odd with on and off rain and the occasional thunderstorm. The Bass were pretty scattered with the overcast conditions and could be found in lay downs, off riprap, and near grass. I was using a Booyah but any White, Double Willow spinnerbait would have worked well to imitate Shad.

Docks
During early spring tournaments I targeted docks and pilings for largemouth. They primarily held on the sunny pieces of cover where they could absorb some warmth. I was pitching around a Rage Menace, Texas Rigged on a 3/0 EWG, with a lighter 1/4 oz bullet weight.

The fish were all up shallow chasing bait, they were slamming the Jackhammer left and right. They were on reaction so don’t be hesitant to move the blade fast. The single warm days work the best!
