Got out with the usual suspects, Dave and Steve. Much cooler than last week, 53 degrees, last week was 71 at 4:30am. Water level continues to drop, which could have caused the morning bite to be slower, that and the cooler weather. Did start to catch them on top when daylight came, a couple of healthy bass on popper and crawler. Not many busters down Hauser sides, today the popper was the go to bait for me especially the new Shimano flash and also got them on wacky senko. Overall another great day with @40 bass, left @1pm. Weather was 93 and water was 77

Another nice day Chuck! Picked up a crawler at Las Vegas BassPro Tuesday. Looking forward to throwing it the 17th.

Popper is always a go to lure
. That my little Rapala was doing good numbers in that first spot we were, and then when I went around the corner it was like candy to the 1 pound club.
John, I have some of those Heddon crawlers and they work great. The pompadour throws a little more noise.

Chuck, did you pull in another double? Managed somewhere in high thirties as I stopped counting one my lure was bigger than. Thanks Dave for the lures they worked great.

Glad they worked out for you. Did you use the black one or the bone one?

Those are some healthy looking fish! BTW, how did you catch two at once? Last month on my tube I managed to get two on at once dragging an Ika while working a crankbait, but they both hit at once and I couldn't reel in either lest I drop a rod (they both tied themselves in branches and I looked idiotic to a passing boat).
Oh, and I may have discovered the source of the dropping water levels!

I caught one on the crawler and use the leash to hold it then I got the other one on the popper.
