I'd have a weighted Texas rigged stick bait of some sort like a general and start flippin that area apart! It looks fishy.. from what i can make out from the pictures, maybe a good spot to run a chatter or a crankbait along the edges.

New toy time!

Nice!

Stay calm and fish on... nice fish man!

😆

Here's your star 🌟! Yup that late night infomercial 15+ some year's ago got me, roped me in to buying 2 of them.

Nope... its a Banjo minnow kit! It was one of those late night infomercial buys! The ad got me... haha! I think this kit is going on 15+ years old now?? I bought 2 that night, I remember. Could never catch much on them, but i didn't know what i was doing back then. If i remember right I think the first package all melted on me when I left my tackle box in my car on a hot summers day 😆

That is a real good habit to form and to get used to doing!

Thats definitely looks like a hybrid of some sort, at first glance it looks alot like a buzzbait... But its not lol! I may have to try one of those out.

Hey that's a good finish if it where in my book, and I'd agree with you of what a learning experience and cool opportunity you had!
