Fished areas with old lily pad stems. Caught a few on my suspending lipless ratl trap using a rod sweep and 10 second pause. Fishing is going to pick up. #omniaattheclassic

Tried grass flats with limited results on Spinnerbait, swimming worm, and crank bait. Found the juice was wood and metal dock posts. Bigger fish came from 8-10’ depth. Smaller fish a bit shallower.

Bassin on the Potomac right after a cold front is tough. Air temp in the morning was only 30 degrees. Fish had lockjaw and wouldn’t hit a moving bait. Only 2 fish caught for the day were both caught on zoom trick worms. One was caught by my fishing partner with a Junebug trick worm T-rigged with an 1/8oz bullet weight. The single fish I caught for the day was on Junebug Red and a shaky head.
