Hit the lake around 7 am. Started by throwing a chartreuse spinnerbait towards the lilypads and had a take on the second cast! Lost it by the boat unfortunately, prolly 1.5 lbs or so. Continued on throwing spinnerbaits, jigs, and a frog with no luck. Switched to a zara spook and missed one a few casts in. That got me excited for more topwater so we continued on. Suddenly a nice lookin pig broke surface, completely exiting the water after my spook and missed (prolly 3 lbs)! I cast back to the same spot and he missed again (or I pulled too soon). Either way I did miss the big one of the day. Luckily several yards later I hooked and landed this guy on the spook. All in all a good day, great to see the topwater action has arrived for me! We saw a lot of fry hugging floating logs and by one group of them a bass kept surfacing. Not sure if he was protecting the fry, or fillin' up on some easy breakfast, either way he wanted nothing to do with what we threw at him. By the look of the whirlpool he kept creating he looked sizable. Anyhoo, tight lines all! Ocktane out!
