Water temperature was 57 degrees in the morning and 60 degrees by the end of the day. Bass were schooling in 4-7’ of water. Cranking the hybrid hunter along the bank ripping it through the submerged vegetation doing so as fast as possible to get a reaction bite from the schooling bass. When they slowed down in the schools I worked the robo worm along the submerged grass edges in 6-9’ of water this as a consistent bite throughout the day.
