Super User geo g Posted May 7, 2018 Super User Posted May 7, 2018 Saturday 5/5/18 6:30-Noon cloudy wind 0-10 south east water dirty, 78* Went with a friend Rick and from MM30 ramp ran east to the man made cuts on the north canal. Fished a quarter mile each side of bridge #3. The cuts are often good when water is flowing out of them. We started with top water frogs with little action except from gar, and oscar. We moved to U-Vibes and Senkos and the bite was on. Most bass caught deep, swam along the bottom. We moved to the bridge and it was every other cast. They were stacked in along the pilings and a fun time. We caught between 45 and 50 bass, and another bunch of junk fish. Because of weather conditions deteriorating around noon, and a sudden drop in temperature, we headed out of Dodge. Just got home and tucked the boat in the garage and the skies opened. Another fun day in paradise, catching numbers were good, good company, and pleasant morning temps. 4 Quote
Robert Bagnall Jr Posted May 7, 2018 Posted May 7, 2018 Fish that area with big flukes. Throw in the pads pull out and let it drop. Then watch your line. 1 Quote

I was on the north side of the Alley on Saturday, too, same area as geo g (MM28-30, prob saw you out there!). My friend Joe and I were also catching tons, also on the Zoom U-vibe (!), but up untill 10:00 we were catching even more on a Vision 110 jerkbait jiggled down the middle of the canal. We persevered through the rain (which was brief, actually) and in the sunnier afternoon the pattern changed. From noon till 2:00 the ticket was burning EZ Swimmers across the pads and sinking them to the bottom at the outer edge, which resulted in slightly larger quarry. We had 40 keeper size and perhaps as many dinks. Thanks, geo g for this and your past reports. I always appreciate a tip! Quote
Super User geo g Posted May 8, 2018 Author Super User Posted May 8, 2018 Thanks Hawgenvy, we too caught a bunch in the middle of the canal deep. Super flukes and u-vibes were killers deep. The bridge pilings were hot for some quality bass. Did you fish one of those tournaments? Quote
Wurming67 Posted May 8, 2018 Posted May 8, 2018 That uvibe is such a diverse soft plastic bait.Thanks for the reports guys. 1 Quote
