Hey guys, glad I haven't been forgotten, I'm a little busy lately (did fish Havasu this week though). A 4# bass in SJ is sweet now days. I've had all my big LM's out of there (biggest was 10-12#). Until they started killing the weeds. I don't know if that killed the fish (never saw any floaters), but since late April I haven't pulled better than maybe a couple 3's from there. And never any numbers, and all winter I'd have 5 fish nights regularly. I just hope they just went into hiding.

Lately I've been hitting Discovery on the rare occasion that I find some spare time. Best from there was about 5#. But, the usual pattern has been a 3, a couple 1.5 - 2's, finishing with a couple dinks. I hit that place four different nights over a month, always starting at sunset and fishing under 2 hours. All four nights I swear I caught the same 6 or 7 fish in the same order. Usually all my fish there are on Senkos, but a few fall to the puppy too.

My question, when throwing the trout baits, what role does water depth play? Discovery is pretty shallow, but I want to try something new there. I have a 7" or 9" Basstrix I was saving for the sand bass spawn I never fished. Should I throw this into deeper areas, or stick to the shallow areas I fish now?

Sorry this went so long, it's been a while,

Brian, almost ready to try the spotties again?

You can't catch it again if it's dead!
