Early April bass fishing 101

It's go time! The water is officially over 50 degrees! That means bass of both kinds prowling around in fairly shallow water looking for a fast meal before they get their freak on!
The ticket...we talked about this before, kids. Husky Jerks, Rattle Traps and our new secret weapon the smaller size X-Rap by Rapala!
Along with these two nice smallies I caught 3 more laremouth, missed a couple more on the pause of the bait AND had a great fight 15 minute fight with a tail hooked 20# carp.
Get out there kids and use Uncle Mike's version of the Insane-O retrieve with a suspending stick bait and bang some big fish! It's go time baby!!!
