We put in at Soddy, around 6 am, headed up river to one of our favorite spots, there the fish were busting top water till the sun got up real good,but I caught my 1st fish on the first cast with a 10 inch worm, then tied on a popper, caught some but there were also strip there caught 2 of those! All of my bass were caught on the same color worm! My brother caught his on the popper, shaky head, & a different color worm.We could not get a bite on a crank bait or in shallower water, I'm talking like 10 ft & under, all of the fish were near grass & in deeper water! We stayed there till it played out went to our next spot same situation the fish in 15 ft deep & near grass but all caught on the worms! I ended up with 13 bass & 2 strippers & my brother 20! Mostly all the bass were keepers, it was one of my best days of fishing in a long time! We quit around 12:00 pm. emoDance
