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).

Definitely know the feeling. Had those days crappie were hitting chatterbaits, jerkbaits, dropshot, etc. As soon as I intentionally fish for crappie the bass suddenly want to wear out my ultralight.

Brian Latimer to find them mostly. No electronics when fishing from the bank. But if they get hooked it's a win win. I've noticed a lot of bass are lurking outside the beds (especially the females). Trying to think outside the traditional and save time wasted on empty beds.

I didn't expect them to eat it. The objective was to get them to attack or at least show me some one was home to save time (and soft plastics lol. I've got a ever growing pile of craws missing appendages from 2 weeks of bed fishing)

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.

I completely agree with Brian Latimer on baitcaster drags. For my moving baits with treble hooks, I have my drag just tight enough for the hookset, and even then my drag is going to give if I don't use my thumb. It took a whole season of cranking to get use to using my thumb for drag & hookset, but so far (especially this month) I haven't ripped any hooks out on the bigger bass.
