I had tied on a Strike king Coffee Tube (Amber-Copper-Green Flake) and a Zoom Trick Worm (Cotton Candy) started dragging them slowly through the area and my partner sets the hook on a nice 2.84 smallmouth bass. Right off the bat we graphed some schools of bait and fish, they were in the 28 to 34 foot level which really shot holes in my topwater hopes. We ran back down to the main points of the lake and the sun. I’m not going to lie I only lasted a short time up in the cold air of the river. I threw the Whopper Plopper and he was throwing the Rover, both River2Sea Baits. Started by running up the river and throwing topwater baits. It’s all about fun and getting on the water, lets catch some fish anyways. I’m taking a long time friend out fishing, he hasn’t been on the water in close to a year maybe more. Soon the breeze dies and the water goes flat and Scotts Flat’s crystal clear water shows off its beauty with 20 feet of visibility. Just a breath of air on the water, enough to make it cold on your wet hands.
