Got out on the water a couple of hours late Thursday, another half day on Friday. Hooked into 5 nice bass, lost 2 at the boat as I was reaching for my net. My confidence bait is a wacky rigged Senko, but I thought I’d try to catch them on something else. Still no luck with a frog (need some lessons from Andy), but did have success with a hard jerkbait, a spook-type topwater, and a spinnerbait. The jerkbait also got me a crappie and 6 perch, all about 8-10”. The topwater also caught a fat 18” pickerel and a feisty 6” largemouth (on a 5” bait). I’ve included pics of the 3 bass that made it into the boat (not counting the little guy) plus some sunsets.

Alright Don. With all those lilies I'm surprised that you couldn't get any top water action later in the day.

Nice Bass Don, sometimes in a kayak it gets difficult to keep good pressure but looks like you were into some good fish. I usually loose a few everytime out . " Throw what ya know" and keep " Rippin' Lips" . That water looks like a frog would be welcome. Very nice pics and thanks for sharing.🐸🐸🐸🐸🐸🇺🇲🇺🇲

Nice. Got a question . How easy is it to fish a jerk bait from your kayak .? I’ve never been able to fish them properly from mine . Now I can stand in my nitro , make a cast , and lower my rod tip below the gunnel , crank the bait down and jerk them the way I’m supposed to . Any pointers ?
