I remember earlier this year seeing some baitfish busting and tossing senkos
and soft jerkbaits into the mix only to reel it back in without a bite. I
switched to SW spinnerbait and caught 12 keepers in about 20 minutes. Felt
like I could have won the classic.. didn't want it to end

That's quite a coincidence Richard buddy - remember that great day I was
talking about?

Yup, Manor Lake.

I never keep bass, however I keep trout occasionally if the situation
warrants. For example, we kept trout during a backpacking trip this
past
summer in the Wind River Range in Wyoming.

BTW- Since you are a local Warren, the lake was Manor Lake in
Tulleytown.
The eagle grabbed his meal off of the stump flats. I was working a
white
spinnerbait along the far shore by the creek outlet when I saw him.

Nice job Richard, very observant of you. One tiny ripple on the
opposite
side of a flat led me to one of the best days I've ever had here in
PA,
about 50 good keepers including my first "double".

Pays to be observant.

All kidding aside, I was somewhat frustrated "looking" for bass on
my
home
lake earlier this summer. Being a devotee of Rich Z's book, I tried
to
think
like a bass, not the master of a tackle box. Sure enough, as I was
looking
out over the lake I saw an eagle swoop down and pluck a small bait
fish
out
of the water. A few minutes later I was casting a floating rapala
in
the
vicinity of where the eagle grabbed his meal. It wasn't long until
I
had
a
nice fat bass in the live well.

Sometimes it pays to step back and re-think your approach towards
finding
fish.
