My landowner friend from Indiana along with his girlfried and his adult son came down for the weekend to fish for spotted bass.
Friday evening and Saturday were tough as the pattern of a carolina rig for bedded fish was slow and had been hot up until then.
We switched to throwing super spooks on main lake points with my boat sitting in 30' of water. No fish breaking anywhere.
Man 'oh Man those big spots were blowing up on it. They took home 42 spots filleted with all of them between 2 1/2 and 3 1/2 pounds. Most caught on Sunday am and late evening and Monday am.
Spots had pulled off the beds and were in open water feeding on bluebacks. I was glad to repay my friends kindness of letting me hunt on the property with a great fishing trip for spotted bass. Glad I figured out that the pattern had shifted like switching a light switch.
