First December bass

[Smells like fish]

I have never fished in December. Last night was in the 20’s but today was up in the 50’s, overcast and a few drips of rain off and on. I don’t know what the water temperature is but this bass was cold and his kisser was looking like spring. 
 

I tried a lipless res in a pond but no joy. I then threw this hair jig and after many attempts…my first December bass!! Ahhhh the smell of fish!

These jigs are 5/16 Kingfisher hair jigs which is a local product here. I tore an inch off of a Zoom Z Craw in Black Light for a trailer and they look amazing at rest in the water. That trailer stands it up just like a crawdad in a defensive “about to be ate” posture. I had dragged this jig, hopped it, swam it so those Z Craw pincers would give off their sweet little roll, but when I jerked this jig same as a jerkbait- it was bam on first try. I never made another cast, I knew my luck was up ? and that I was told dinner was ready!
