 ~roflmao  The bass have been biting on 14, but i haven't been on 13 in a couple weeks.  vibrashock bite has been pretty good.  Even hooked about a 3lb smallie a couple of days ago on a vibrashock.  didn't get it in the boat though.  ~b~  Looks like I might have to head to the 13 to try and get on a frog bite.

The fishing has been tough on the river until the last week or so.  I did good on 13 last night boating about 6-7 and missing at least that many.  lo  I was using a pegged 1 ounce sinker and hopping it through scattered grass.  They would grab it on the way down and take off with it and i'm pretty sure they fealt the weight before I could get a hook in em.  I actually missed the first 4 bites I had.  lo  First 1 rolled to the top on the hookset and it was about a 4lbr.  Only managed to get 1 on a frog, but they were smashing the buzzbait just before dark in the same place I was catching them on a jig.  My buddy had 3 hits on a buzzbait with no keepers and I missed 2.  it was a rough night % wise, but we've been alittle out of practice lately.  lo
