Trip Summary

The start of May is a great time to sight fish for spawning bass. Drop shots and swimbaits work great when they are doing their deal. With the warm weather fish are also starting to suspend underneath the docks. Ive been targetibg these fish by skipping senkos underneath the docks into the shade.
