My goal coming back to Post oak Lake less than a week after my last trip was to land the big bass that I jumped and lost last time. Fail. Never saw her. But, I had a fun topwater bite ( 5 bass) followed by a squarebill bite (8 bass), a short underspin bite (2 bass), and finally a soft plastic bite (7 bass). I tried multiple lure types during each pattern but the bass were narrowly focused on one lure at a time. That said, most of the topwater was near the dam, the crankbait bite was near the stumps in 5 ft of water, and the soft plastic bite was in the “moss” next to shoreline grass. 22 total in 5 hours with only two harvested. Most were 2 ½ # and the largest were 4#. Beautiful morning catching bass in solitude!
