Default Another Slow but Productive day

I went out guns blazing today. Last weekend I had been on a jerk bait bite.
Today I figured to slay them on a Jerk bait by taking out the little boat
and getting into some backwaters that I figured would be perfect for it. No
such luck. I picked up a couple rats popping a floating jerk bait, but
nothing, not even a bump, on the suspending jerkbait that had served my so
well last weekend.

I broke out one of the new double blade SWL spinnerbaits Joe sent my with my
last order and tried flipping it, buting it, and slow rolling it down a bank
that has consistantly produced fish for me in the past.

Finally I I found something that would work for me. I started flipping a
senko. First worm rigged, and then wacky rigged. I tied into 4 good fish,
but was only able to put two of them int he boat. Fortunately the bigger
one was a nice solid 4.16 pounder that barely squeaked out big fish for the
day. Paid for my gas and entry fee atleast. It was a good day.

The senkos produce in spots and conditions that I ordinarily would have
figured a spinner bait to be the lure of choice. Weird.

Still a good day on the water.
