Slightly slower than my usual crank bait retrieve, but after thinking about my day of fishing... I'm wondering if I would have gotten better results if I had fished faster. Varied intervals of retrieval with occasional pops over the weed beds and holes in the weed beds

Actually had this northern follow my bait back to my boat while I was reeling in, just messing around using the shakey head to go just over the tops of weeds like a swim bait. He turned around when he saw the boat, but I cast again and did the same thing and he took it. Might try this again in the future.
