Weather Conditions: Early fog to warm sunny skies. Wind up to 5 mph.

Water Temperature: 63 Degrees
Water Clarity: Clear up to 12' visibility.
Fish Boated::
(1) 2lbs 6oz; Spotted bass, shaky head
(1) 2lbs 4oz; Spotted bass, shaky head
(2) 2lbs 2oz; Spotted bass, shaky head
(25+) < 2lbs 0oz; Spotted bass, shaky head, spinnerbait, spidergrub, tube

We patterned points and secondary points, tips, drop offs near shallow water as the bass seemed to be in 'post spawn' mode.

Fished 15 to 20 feet of water using the 1⁄4 ounce shaky head rigged with soft plastic stick bait, green pumpkin in color. Very active bite!

Cover a lot of water if possible, shake/dance/twitch your shaky head aggressively while reeling up your slack frequently. Target deeper points, secondary points, steep rocky ledges and drop-offs.
