Spent 3.5 hours in 25+ mph winds with my grand daughter having some memories made. We started at lower Tear Drop and just couldn't get the bite. We decide to drive up the hill to upper Tear Drop. We started at the dock with the wind howling. Today the Bass wanted nothing moving. No spinners, no lipless cranks, no chatterbaits. The lesson for the day became more difficult. Worm fishing in 25 mph winds and feeling the bite. We used a ½ oz. bullet weight on a zoom black sapphire speed worm. Except we didn't use any speed . We would cast and let it hit the bottom and sit for a few minutes. After that we did a little shaking and 3 or 4 turns on the reel. Bingo, bango, bongo that was the ticket. She managed to catch a couple of nice fish. She lost one at dock that I could have put a football in its mouth. So we ended with 6 for the afternoon. All the Bass were between 3 and 4 pounds. The 3 lakes are full and 3 to 4 feet clarity. The roads are gravel and the fields are drivable to the docks. My grand daughter only regret was we didn't stop at the general store for sushi. She said we will do some better planning the next time and sushi will be a priority.

I always forget to stop for sushi at that place as well – I keep saying ‘next time’ – I need to put in my calendar as a reminder or something. Glad you got on some fish – that is a rough intro to bass fishing indeed!
