Found a lot of fish in the coontail. Just had to be clean weeds and have the long stems coming up.
Hard to duplicate the bite with so much scum on most of the weeds.
Chatterbaits and spinnerbaits did the job.
Winds light
Air temp 54 to 74
Water temp 74 - 76
Sunny
The ducks were flying a ton thus morning, I saw teal, mallards, bluebills, and a hen canvasback.

Way to go Zipster! A couple of those fish look a lot like bass. When you coming back to see us again?
Got a steak waiting.

I'd love to come tomorrow. I'm thinking in 2021 we will visit Louisiana and Texas.

3/8 oz white with hammered nickel #5 colorado blade.
A z-man chatterbait black/blue with a black/blue paca craw.
And the spot is (wait the last time I showed you a spot you tried to put the smack down on me) not in the bay.

I have a few spinnerbaits to give you next time we get out. If you found a good spinnerbait bite, you can put them to the test!

Mr. Zippy's not too bad at it either.
Congrats on another successful outing Zippy.
