It was too cold early for my wimpy self, so I had a delayed start this morning and didn't launch until near 0830.  They were biting early, I caught 3 off the ramp on a jerk bait before I launched.  

Deep bite was on for a while, I decided to throw a grub on a 1/4 oz head, drug it on the bottom in 30-40 FOW and caught some bass, mostly spots.

Caught a couple on the Ned rig fishing close to shore.

Caught a little over 20 bass, 3 were keepers.

The one largemouth keeper I caught had one of those split right in the middle lower jaws.  The fish was healthy considering it had a busted lower jaw.  Sure would like to know what causes that.  

WT - 58.5

My favorite cypress has turned.

Quillback, talk about diehard! It was very cold when you started. That ramp sure produces for you.  Congratulations on the success.

Well done Quillback!!  Did you try the jerk bait from the boat or just the bank? 3 from the bank is awesome!!

I did fish it from the boat for a bit, caught a 12 incher off a laydown and that was it.  I believe that if I had spent all day throwing it I would pick up a fish here and there.
