Redear just started spawning at this little county park lake. Locked up on the beds with some nests a few feet off the bank in a foot of water so the only thing they would hit is tiny duck feather jigs on a #12 sickle hook. Dropped jig into nest, twitch jig a few times on the bottom and occasionally one would eat it.

Nice fish. Beautiful jigs
very cool , might try a tiny float and SLOW drag it thru the bedding area , seems the transient fish in the area hate to see a wandering small fish in the bedding area , watched that type of scenario years ago on a bunch of beds with a mixture of species including red ear in the mix .....the ones on the beds were tough , the ones in the general area and unattached were EASY ....:highfive
I have such a good time popping a jig up off the bottom, then a few inch move and hop it again and thump, it's on. I have loads of stuff to try, some even already tried on, but I just don’t think to use it when what’s in my hand is working good. I’ve carried a float rig 4 or 5 trips and never think yo use it. Maybe I’ll get smart one day, but don’t hold your breath.
