Been fishing twice over the last 2 weeks.  First trip out was good on the quantity side of things, GREAT on the quality side.  Buddy netted this 7-7 largemouth dragging a spinnerbait where some shallow water met deep water.  Also put a couple 4s in the boat.

Next trip was Saturday and quality was great, but quantity was awesome.  We filled a cooler with 1-2 pounders and released another 8 or 10 that were 3+ pounders.  Biggest was 5-11.

The fish were on the most “rigid” pattern I’ve ever seen.  White spinnerbait within 2 feet of woody structure in 2-4 feet of water = guaranteed bite.  It was unbelievable!  Got to the point where we were joking back and forth “Bet you $20 bucks that stump has a bass beside it”…and there would be 2!  Like I said, best springtime bass bite I’ve ever been in on.

Shed hunting has been tough to say the least.  Alabama deer don’t make it easy on the eyes when a few are still carrying antlers 3 or 4 weeks into green up.  I’ve been out twice though and picked up 4 fresh ones.  One was a matched set which I don’t have a picture of, but these 2 were picked up on my first antler hunt.

Next one is a “find the antler” photo
