Friday I went to Bradley with my brother and my daughters, I casted a strom crankbait a few times in between tending my daughters poles My brother threw a small red and black spinnerbait. No fish there, didn't see any. I did run into Goin Postal though, and said hi!

Saturday, went to Lake #12 for a few hours to try to get some stockers for the kids, There were lots of fish surfacing but, I only brought night crawlers and bobbers. The fish didn't want those so that was a bust. Some guys were using small dicknites and caught about 40 or so right next to us. We were in a boat all around lake.

Sunday, I bought the wife jewelry, so she let me go fishin in afternoon. With not too much time left, I went up to Whitman. I think my handicap to bass fishin has been crankbaits so I put plastic worms and jigs on all my poles (4). I started with a 4" purple senko T-rigged. I skipped it under first dock to the right of the boat launch and right away I saw my line runnin to side, so I swung, ended up being fat 15 lmb. Two docks later on same set up, I felt my line "twang" real hard, that was another 15 incher.
I fished around other side of lake, after returning to boat launch to dump out water from rain storm. That is where I made a huge mistake. I casted out, felt the "twang" on the line, set the hook and my line broke. That is what I get for not checkin my knot. So, after swearin up a storm, I picked up my other pole that had a red/black flake worm and casted in same spot, and got bit again. That fish was the biggest at just over 3lbs, she even burned some drag. I got lucky on that fish.
I was on water at 4pm and off at 7pm. Water was 51/52. All fish were under or close to docks. Goodluck everyone!

Switch to braid and you'll catch every fish that bites. Good report. Jewelry what a way to get out on the water.
