Buzz Bait

I've been catching a lot of nice bass off my dock on a pearl super fluke with a split shot about 2 feet above it. Just let it drop to the bottom in about 20 to 40 feet and slowly twitch it back up. Most hits come during the drop. Lost one about 5 pounds when he broke my line, but I still love my ultra lights... By the way, one LM was kept because of some serious gill damage. She was full of eggs. The other LM's looked fat. Is this normal?

Several years ago we had an exceptional amount of algae around our dock. I contacted the DNR because we were concerned about septic/sewage issues. The DNR inspector came and told us that because snow contains a lot of nitrogen, the more snowfall during the winter, the more algae we get in the spring.
