Mouths of spawning coves with wart, Ned nothing. Secondary points and banks with mixed rock and pea gravel with wart, 9 fish in 1.5 hrs, 7 keeps all but 2 were brown fish. Largest brownie 3.5lb. Most others 2-2.5 mostly females. Lone LM approaching 4 lbs. Bite stopped and finally got back on them swimming a shad colored grub on secondary points. 15 total, 12 SM, 1K, 1LM, 1 Meanie. Best 5 were 14 ish. Fun day. Should be better tomorrow for those who can get away.

Champ188 Posted April 5, 2015 Posted April 5, 2015 Nice work, Jim. Thanks for the detailed report. Donna and I are about to go see what we can scare up down that way.
Quillback Posted April 5, 2015 Posted April 5, 2015 A couple of beautiful bass, thanks for the report!
Members kazoobass Posted April 5, 2015 Members Posted April 5, 2015 Thanks for the report. I am in st. Louis now on my way down. Weather report seems to be getting better for my three days mid week. Jim Elam 1
Jim Elam Posted April 5, 2015 Author Posted April 5, 2015 What color wart? Brown crawdad. Pause it before it gets to the boat for a half second or so, then crank it in. Fish were in 6-10 fow. I'm sure some other cranks would work too. Caught a few of the nicer ones on an old Deep Jim in same color. Gets a little deeper...

Jim Elam Posted April 5, 2015 Author Posted April 5, 2015 Nice work, Jim. Thanks for the detailed report. Donna and I are about to go see what we can scare up down that way. The brown bass were really locked in on areas with some pea gravel. I missed several fish the slapped at the wart half way back to the boat. Pausing it momentarily helped.
