Storm Front
So I’m Fishing tomorrow and the forecast is kinda cold. Both high and low temps dropping 10 to 15 degrees from today. My last trip, the Bass were in 0-2 feet of water and busting my weedless Topwater. What is the general consensus for tomorrow. I imagine the Bass will drop out to the outside edges of the flats they have been frequenting. If you have any ideas, let ‘er rip. I always appreciate other “Bass Killers” ideas…

Re: Storm Front
Great question! And your premise is very possible. Have a reaction lure tied on to test shallow early, then be ready to go outside in varying depths w plastics. If we are metering them out there but they’re not on the bottom baits, might pull out a deep diving crank.

Re: Storm Front
I am fishing Lake X….I'm afraid the Bass are going to do a “Diddy” and fly the coop.

Re: Storm Front
I’m back from Lake X. Got on the water at 7 am and started off with a Zman Streakz on an Owner weighted EWG hook. I like those, they have s screw in with center pin spring to attach to the nose of the bait. I got a Bass straight off next to a Tree Stump in 6 feet of water. Then I saw a few swirls shallow so I took off the weighted Streaks and mounted a fresh one on a Gamakatsu light wire 4/0 EWG hook. It was game on. Tge cool weather had them slapping at the bait but I was hooking quite a few. Then a giant boil on my Bait, I got spun around and the Fish took off for open water.i kicked out away from the trees and put the Boron to that fish. A big mouth with whiskers came up, 15 pound Channel Cat(Whisker Bass) I worked the trees for the rest of the trip landing 24 Bass and an absolute giant Bluegill that was close to 2 pounds. That thing was tough and completely sucked down my 5 inch Streakz. The wind was really picking up. Kicked back to the launch ramp and was home by 2 pm. Great trip, God I love this time of year!

Re: Storm Front
Love the secret coded messages….ha ha
p.s.
I actually am thinking of a different lake than you guys are talking about. That’s what happens with old age.
