>>2156819Caught a solid bass off the dock for once. I think they're coming back shallow to snack on mayflies and any bluegill that's too preoccupied with the hatch to be on their guard.
Also, someone recommend me a kayak net. Went out on the kayak about an hour later and lost another guy this size after I kept him stuck through 2 jumps and a long drag pull trying to boat flip him in. I did manage to lip and land an 8ish pound channel cat a bit after that but catfish have meaty mouths and get hooked more solidly than bass do.
