July 9 -8 hrs fishing
Dead calm occassional light breeze..Air Temp -mid 70's
Greg immediately looses a nice bass on a green lizard..on NW side near an overhangin’ tree and dock establishing a rubber worm onslaught…this pattern of 5”Berkley power worms and Jersey Riggs in motor oil, black watermelon and Gold Ice colors catches Bass all day all over the lake…many bass were dropped but way more were caught…nothing seemed to exceed 14” however. Bass also hit Rebel Wee R’s..and small spoons throughout the day.
