Hit the water at 530 caught first fish by 545, by 700 we had our limit of 8 fish and was on our way back to the launch. Worked small spoons and orange pink jigs. Hooked about 20 fish a piece with several shaking loose the hook. One knocked the lid open on the cooler and made his escape back into the water. 1 for dinner tonight the rest are in the smoker. All in all a good morning. Average size 4 to 5 pounds.

Hey Bass,
We switched between 1/4 OZ Eagle Claw steel head jigs in pink / pink orange and 5/8 Luhr Jensen Krocodile chrome / blue spoons. Once we were in a school of fish we would cast a few on one set up then switch up and cast on the other. I put a picture of the jig and spoon in my gallery. My buddy also rigged a jig below the bobber shown in the picture because he is going to fish from the bank before work. Casting the bobber with jig set 3 feet below and giving is a twitch and a turn on the reel proved to be effective method. I have no doubt that he will catch fish from the bank next week. I used my light trout poles with 6 l b. test and we really had to play the fish to get them to the boat. Good luck!
