Has anyone ever had this happen? Maybe there was some flashing or issues in the manufacturing process. But water was able to get into the top layer of the bait. Threw me for a loop when I saw it. Thought I snagged a dang marble hahaha!

Had to go back out to my neighbors pond and put on a little clinic yesterday afternoon.

Dipped a line in my local reservoir and fished clay bottom flats with laydowns.

He was a little salty 😡😂

Hit up Lake Juliette on Sunday... The ol wacky rig came through. Targeted a shallow saddle flat with cover on both sides. I literally cast out my rig, sat pole down to adjust my kayak, picked up my rod, and a fish was on it.... Tried fishing slower the rest of the day, but only got one. I didn't think about moving further back off the bank until I read Alex Sterling post last night. Anyways, a good bass on Juliette is a win for me any day so I'm happy with it.

45 degree water on the Great Lakes, Erie specifically . Blasted em. How do you think we caught them? Destiny Siguenza was on fire!

Potomac River fishing over emerging grass in 58 degrees water. Topwater and crankbaits.

Not catching quantity today but caught few around this size today…. This one on a crank bait. Having a beautiful day on the water

Need a fish ID. Was fishing a new creek today. Was expecting largemouth, but started catching spots. Those were easy to identify due to the extra rows of lines below the lateral. Also caught some smallmouth-hybrids it seems. Biggest fish appears to be a largemouth but the mouth doesn't extend past the eye. So is it a spot?

Good morning from the boat ramp at Calhoun.
