BASS ~ Excellent. most early fish coming on inside grass line or around shoreline vegetation in 4ft to 8ft use the new VanDam Proseries OPTIC POPPER in pearl yellow head.This Bait is hand crafted from bass wood with fiberoptic tubes through the bait for flash and the fish love it. as day warms drop out to 12ft to 20ft and throw a carolina rigged Yamamoto 7" cut tail in watermelon pepper green flake or a 5/8oz shad colored fat free shad.look for schooling fish and throw a little easy or rinky dink.
