Spotted bass are HOT. Largemouth have not moved back in the creeks too far. Largemouth are still holding in 25' during the day, moving up to 10-12' at night. Best bite was from 4am to sunrise for largemouth. After 9 am good luck. Go cook breakfast.

Had a great tournament winning the Bassmaster Central Federation championship. As water temp were falling, I had 3 patterns going that help best the field by over 4lbs and had the largest bag of the tournament of 19.4. Many fish we stacked on the ledges in the back of larger creeks. I target channel swing ledges in 10-14ft with a strike king xd5 custom painted by Bag5Baits. In addition with slightly stained water I caught a majority of my fish extremely shallow on docks w a 1/2 black n blue flippin jig. Last two key fish over 5lbs, were boated on Berkeley Choppo custom painted in Bone Ranger color by Bag5Baits. Awesome tournament and great payday!

Two flukes was the technique today. Two owner switch lock hooks, one ball bearing swivel. I place my second lures a 1” from the tail of the first fluke.
