Bass Bite

[brian g]

Second time one the lake. Fished Wednesday 3 kentuckys all day. Super tough. No wind or clouds. Thursday fished around dam. 12 fish with 4 keepers. Small mouth and kentuckys Drop shot til the wind picked up. Then fished gravel points with the wart. Ok day I guess. Didn't think I had a good pattern. Partly cloudy with some wind. Friday I couldnt find the big schools of shad to drop shot. (didn't have the patience) fished up the james river. Was happy to see it was too windy for drop shot. Again tried gravel points with wart. A few shorts Started fishing bluff walls with a craw colored wiggle wart caught 2 spots, but I noticed they werent hitting when it was hitting bottom. It was in open water half way back to boat. Switched to mid depth shad crankbait and Game on! Spent the last few hours hitting bluff walls back to kimberling city. Caught 30 fish 10 keepers. Smallmouth kentuckys and largemouth. Very good day. Don't know if I found something or the fish just turned on. Cloudy, windy day.

I like to think you put the pieces of the puzzle together when switching to the mid-depth crank!:-)......nice recovery there. I think most anglers (including myself at times), wouldnt have put the pieces of the puzzle together and switched up.
