I was pitching a rubber worm into the reeds and working it slowly back to the boat.All of the hits have been about 10 feet off the shore in about 7 foot of water..One problem with pitching ..your left hand has line and your right hand alone has the rod..On the two I lost I saw my line move ..the fish sucked it up and were moving away sloowly

I should hve quickly reeled in the slack but instead tried to set the hook with my my right hand only .I forgot to drop the rod tip and quickly reel in the slack..All 3 bass were in the same general area..I got no other bites anywhere..WHile leaving I stirred up a coupe of big swirls around another area..I think they are at the pre spawn stage..If it's ok with my wife..I will be doing some more fishing this week.

Default good info

I might try going out sometime and trying the same thing before the spawn. I just have to try to set the hook right because I do what you did a lot.

Default Some luck

We went today me and my step-dad and the water has really warmed up. We saw some fish chasing around bait. My step dad caught one with a spinner bait casting parallel to the bank with overhanging trees and hydrilla on the edge.

I didn't go partner..it was pouring down raining..at Combee and the rador showed scattered showers..my wife said we are expecting high 30s weather this Thurs and Friday..so I will do my best to be out there Tues., and 60% chance of rain Wed.

I will look on the weather map and see about that weather..
OK..Looks like tomorrow is a very good day..cold front is coming in..Wed..with some rain.high 30s Friday morning..
