4/6-Return to Murray

[VinnyBass]

Geez, I guess it is apart of being old but with the recent heat waves, water going up and then down to even close the ramp and then back up a little to open the ramp at Murray,I just have not fished there much at all. With a little cooler weather in the forecast, I decided to give it a go this morning. Cloudy conditions when I arrived and saw a few swirls out on the surface so I tossed a small Gunfish. Dang, I lost a bass on my first cast on a jump. I landed 2 small bass after that and later It seemed that each time I tried to get over to where a few bass were jumping, they were long gone, but managed a 3rd bass on that Gunfish. Lot of time was going by as a light rain started to fall. I tied on a Berkley Finisher which is a lipless sort of crank bait and landed 3 more small bass down in deeper water. Before leaving I tied on a Berkley Ripfish and landed 2 more small bass down deep(one being a hungry micro bass). Glad to finally get back out on the water again and while all the bass were pretty small, still had a fun time.

Couple pics...

I’d take your “small bass” any day VB

That middle one is a chunk. They all look healthy. Thanks for posting!

She was small, but solid......lots of shad in her.

Vinney, are you using FFS?

Off and on in the later morning, but mostly
just made a lot of just random casts. The more
my lines in the water, the odds get a little better.
