Actually Dave, this is one of my favorite times because I have found that
the bass are going to be holding real tight to cover and have a very small
strike zone. Put a jig-n-pig or big tube right on target (tight to the
cover - dock post, rock, isolated weed patch, etc.), and shake the hell out
of it, then pop it and repeat. Once my lure is a little more than 18" from
the target, I pull it and cast again. No need to waste time, that bass is
holding tight and it is high unlikely to follow it any distance at all.
