Good day on the water even with only 1 fish, Blue Cypress is a beautiful lake, The Gators were thick and active today, at one point I had 7 all over 8 ft within casting distance, May explain the lack of fish. Alex Sterling would have had a time for sure. Play a little I spy

Rise and Shine, it's Fishing time!
Well it is for me with an hour drive to todays fishin hole
Roland and Brian agree, bass aren’t line shy. I’ve moved to 20lb with the grass getting heavier this time of year in Florida. Take whatever context you like. I still use leaders for action, but the size isn’t a visual deterrent for them or me.
Creek fishing in OKC
Working on fishing laydowns from the bank.
This 3 pounder chased the gremlin out of the laydown. Biggest bass I’ve caught in this creek yet.
Noticed that I’m getting more deliberate with my choices of where I’m going to cast while picking the laydowns apart.
🚨Roundtable in ✌🏽 hours! See you all at 8PM EST.

Went 30 min North of OKC to get a few bites and scout a creek I was told about. Caught 2 on a chatterbait and lost one on a Texas rig dropshot minnow in a laydown.
I am a long time user of Yo-Zuri braid. Went to BPS this morning to get a Z-man Elite EVO Chatterbait that matches my Confidence Color of Toho. Z-Man calls it Bruised Green Pumpkin. It is an almost perfect match and I like my trailers to match my baits. Walking along the line isle I saw Yo-Zuri had a new braid out, 9 strand, So I grabbed one. Got home and let me tell you that is some smooth braid and thin, Spooled up my shaky head rod with it, 15lb braid and a 14lb Fluro leader. Tying the leader I was shocked at how well my FG turned out. Going hunting a twin to the big that I messed up with the picture on tomorrow so will report back.
Here is one more clip from last weekend. He missed the frog initially so I casted a slow sinking bait as a follow up right on the grass line he came out of. What do you guys throw as a follow up bait? This coike is quickly becoming a favorite.
