Thats what it felt like today, after a long week of work, I slipped over to My honey hole on the way home, this is a private lake that always,always yields a few LMB, and after getting skunked last Sunday fishing for Crappie I needed a confidence builder.
The water was cloudy but not real bad, but I decided to throw a Black with glitter Rage Craw on a shakey head, had one nibble, thought maybe I needed to change colors, so I texas rigged a natural color Rage craw, still no takers. Now My confindence bass bait has always been a small tube, but the past couple years Ive been trying to force myself to use other bass gettin plastics, but I had to go back to what I know always works for Me..... a Strike King Bitsy tube, in Pumpkin green with sparkles, on a 1/16oz Owner weighted tube hook. Well I started getting attention right away, but I had 7 bass either spit it right when I was going to set the hook, or jump and spit it, I could of swore one of the jumping Bass gave Me the finger when he spit it!!!! so I shuffled back to My truck wondering if I may have lost my touch, or they just where still kind of lathargic from the Winter, either way it has me second guessing My abilitys tonight!
