Finally got a chance to fish! Working 7 days a week has made it difficult to find the time to get out and break the bass cherry for the year.

Threw an F-3 Rapala to start ending up fowl hooking a small crappie. Little guy tried to crush it and ended up with a hook in the back. Switched to small spinner to try and pick at the sunnys and crappie with no luck. Finally got some luck with a 6" pumpkinseed ribbontail worm and 4" morning dawn finese worm(zoom). 2 Nice bass didn't measure but they were both nice, fat, and to my buddies disapointment released to fight another day.

Sidenote: HOLY CARP!!!!! Jumping swirling cruising everywhere you looked. I don't know why I don't target these beasts they have to put up a good fight.
