Well, I placed 15th today. While driving home I was doing a tournament recap to myself. So this question is something that kept coming up.... what is a morning bite? I was on a morning bite or pattern and was clueless at the time. Yea in the mornings we want to throw top water baits (we as in me), but the pattern I had found was shaking a minnow 🙄at single fish that were around bait balls, which i had 2 within the 1st hr. Bad decision on my part because I left that pattern and tried to force a top water bite🤦🏿‍♂️. Lesson learned thats for sure, because the morning bite wasn't a top water bite! I'll do better on Lake Conroe at the next tournament.
