Thanks Josh...Next time i'll try thudding them hogs.{ I will take your advice and get my rod out of the trash.I was honestly throwing my med, heavy flipping rod away. I'll take your advice }I can tell how they slammed my rod into my boat they were decent fish. all the fish were good tournament fish but I found out the biggest ones are in deeper shoreline pockets OR super heavy cover. Most people don't realizwe all the cover you can cover by flipping. I don't think another boat caught a fish. Fishing was slow but I got around 15 hits. I boated 7 nice fish around 15-17 inches long. I was down to one worm. They make an awesome plastic worm here locally.It was hard ot find but when I did I bought the only 5 packs they had. The color is called Christmas Tree. Something like June Bug but with a little red glitter. The best part. Although you can catch 4 bass on one worm the plastic is the softest I've ever felt. They just about hook themselves.
