Put the boat in the water and the big motor would start. So I just fished docks and beat the banks around lay downs off the creek islands. I went out early morning and caught them on black buzz bait and a spook jr. then switched and fish spinner bait, flipped a tube and jig. Water temp was 68 all fish were caught in 2-4' of water. Had 6 that measured. I did catch one bass that had a leach that was at least 8" long stuck to his underside. I took a picture but the fish flipped and it blurred. I pulled the leach off and tossed it in the back of the boat to take and show the kids. We ended up putting on a hook and letting it pull a floater all around the docks for over an hour with no takers. It looked like a little snake swimming around. My best fish of the day came about 3:30 pm in the head of the day with jet skis and tubes all around I walked out on the dock and was just practicing my cast trying to get my bait to enter the water with out the splash and caught one just under 3 lbs pulling back over a brush pile.
