I had a full load out the day I scouted the place out, to many trees, had to lay everything down and it was windy, couldn't stay still, couldn't really use the motor in there either.  Went back the next day with the right gear and picked that place apart and had a blast doing it!  Had a really good couple of days at that lake.

Found a new play ground today! This place is pretty cool! Had no idea about it if it wasn't for someone metioning this place to me... and its buzzbait time! Also had a real good jig bite going on! That's always fun!! Got one smallie, one crappie, and I landed about 6 largemouth, lost a few and seen a bunch more. Fishing around these houses is kind of bonkers! 😆

I think the " professional " thing to do is a 1, 1000 count...  But when that bite is happening, well I just tend to pull the trigger!!  I got about 3 weeks till that bite is going to be anything up this way, can't wait!  I like to put a little nail weight into the back of my frogs that gets that tail end down into the water just a tad bit more than stock and that seems to really help my bite hook ups even if I get a little bit more jumpy on the hook set!  Also, I like cutting those leg strands down a bit, between 1.5" to 2" max. length is my personal preference.  Oh that's such a fun bite!!

Oh yeah, usually comes flying out and wraps around all my other rods in the back of the Yak!  😂

I'll just throw this out there because I made this mistake being a new member of KBF and their format.  This may not apply to you, but maybe a good habit to get into when going over your check list of things.  Make sure in your phone settings, when taking your photo, that the picture is tagged for the location your in.  I caught myself in this predicament very recently and learned the hard way because my setting was off and I may loose 2 fish because of it, but now I know!

Landed my pb smallie, 20 incher and caught a 19 in on one or two casts after this one. Seen some tiny minnows being driven into a rock sticking out of the water on the bank. Wounder what was causing that to happen?!  Tossed the squarebill that way and fight on!!  Didn't have a scale with me but both were in the 5 lb. range. Fun bite!
