Ran to the lake at Noon to see if time of day made a difference at the moment. Nope. Same crank bait pulled in a 2.5# LMB 14" long. Fun on 2# line and the ultralight. Caught 4 other smaller bass, on plastics, and a spinner (they kept hitting the spinner short). All from the shore. I'd love to toss a float tube or small boat in there!!
