If you know how to pitch..you can get them..I watched a 2 pounder attack my worm today in 6 inches of water..serious as a heart attack...I saw baby minnows jumping just off the shoreline...water crystal clear..I tossed a black worm on the minnows..in 2 seconds out of no where a black bass had hovered over the worm..and with it's vaccumn powered mouth sucked the worm up and started to disappear...I set the hook but she wrapped me up on a cat tail...
