Head West Young Man
Saturday after turkey day I met up at my buddy's place and he took me out to one of his spring/summer AWT ponds. Beautiful day to be on the water low wind balmy (for late November) temps. He had us working jerkbaits off a breakline. We made casts along and up on to the flat. He caught a stocky bass along the break. I hauled water for a long while trying the chatterbait and j9 as well as the jerkbait.
We switched to jigs along a wooded bank. After back to back hangups I got skid-dish/gun shy on the jig and went back to the chatterbait. I had a decent bass come off at the boat on the chatterbait. My buddy landed a nice mid 3lbs off a jig on a brand new lay-down (he said it was probably from that early snow storm).
We worked a flat at the back end of the pond. After finding some still alive pads we got some fish off of them. 2 small bass and 2 darts. The bass came on the j9. My buddy was getting crushed by darts on his jerkbait. We finished up at a small yet long in the water point that had grass on it still. Well it held fish just not to many bass. He pulled 2 on the jerkbait and myself 2 more on a rattletrap. All in all a fun 3.5 hr and big thanks for taking me to a new spot.
