  2. Details: Largemouth Bass

    Didn't have much time before work today but I had to stop to toss the #psychochicken in some water. Haven't had any luck here the last few times I stopped ...more in...but first cast down an overhanging tree line with the PC I got bit. Barely got the bail closed before it swam off with it. Missed a few bites but landed 1 more twitching along weed edges before heading out. Can't wait to tie it on again.

  3. Details: Largemouth Bass

    Fishing the same pockets a few casts later produced this guy. Cast right past an open pocket and reeled it to let it fall in the opening. Let it sit on the bottom ...more for a few seconds than reeled it through the weeds at a medium pace trying to keep in right above them. A few cranks in and I felt the line drift of in the other direction. Set the hook and pulled this lil chunk in.

    80*F mostly sunny with little to no breeze yesterday. Stopped at the mall lake on the way in to work for a few casts after being skunked in Ocean City this past ...more weekend. Casting out from the boardwalk above the pond to visible holes in the weed beds. Letting the Chatterbait sink along the edge of the opening than swimming it for a few feet and letting it sink again. Timing my falls to be around

Managed to snag a couple on the edge of ...more the weeds emerging from shore. Swam the bait up to about 2 feet in front of the beds and let it sink. These 2 couldn't pass it up once it touched down.
