I promise not to post anymore creek fishing - bedfish for now (unless it's a new pb). 8lber on today's adventure. Prayed for favor with the fishies and it was answered.

Not a huge fish but definitely the biggest male I've ever seen & caught on a bed. Weighed in at 3lbs 9oz. Thought maybe I was mistaken and caught the female first (which rarely happens for me) but 5 minutes later I caught the female. She weighed in at 5lbs 2oz. Both fish took a 9" Zoom Mag 2 (another 1st for me to catch bedders with a worm).

Anyone else ever use a small glide bait to scout out suspected bass on beds? Was less than ideal conditions to site fish today with the wind. Figured I'd try chopping a 5" glide through the beds and it worked! Caught 2 little males that way.

God blessed me with a productive hike up and down the feeder creeks this evening. Caught 9 total with 2 really nice ones I found on beds in separate creeks. A 5lb 9oz and 5lb 7oz.

Part 2 of putting what I've learned here about lipless crankbaits to work. Lipless + weedline along a windblown point has been the recipe for success. This one weighed in just shy of 6lbs.

Been putting what I've learned here about lipless crankbaits to practice lately and God blessed me with a good one yesterday. Muddy water, red/firecraw hammer trap, and working a weedline brought this 5lber out of hiding.

Who else had their water temps jump this weekend? My local puddle's water temp went from 45° Tuesday morning to 54° this morning. Also the bite turned on and the bass moved up super shallow. Burning a lip less in 2ft of water parallel with the remaining weedlines was getting smoked.

Not really a boat build per say. My kayak has been referred to as a floating UFO after dark. I'll be adding electronics before long.
