Fished last night from 10 pm til 2 am. Water 83 degrees, little breeze, cloudy early then clear and bright later. Got 6 bass 4#,3# and four 2 1/4 - 2 3/4#. Four on a worm 2 on thunderstick. Missed half a dozen blowups on the stick. Shad were 12;30'ish comin up last night and then not a lot. Getting more active when I left at 2;15 but had to work today. Fished mid-lake.

Hello ray...your patterns sound exactly like mine and it seems as if we are consistant in the fish we are catching.. you should try jus a lil closer to bull run I seemed to catch a little bit heavier fish up tthat way
good luck buddy..

Hey guys. When you're throwing the stick, how do you retrieve it? Any advice on particular worms? Thanks for the great post and great job out there.

Thanks Cflamesman. Topsoff, I try to get the bait within 2-3 ft. of the bank, The retrieve is slow, I wind it fast enuff to make it work but not go under the water, you want it to just kinda wallow along on the top. I like to get somewhere there is a light or either do it during the day, just cast it out and watch it as you retrieve it, you want it to stay on top. Worms..... Green pumpkin for me, Magnum trick worm, Yum Big show worm, trick worms, netbait t-mac, have got them on a junebug powerbait-10". The worm bite has been a little hit and miss this year, Getting a lot of hits and missin most of them. Sometime it seems like the worm don't make a huge difference, location is more important.

Thanks Ray for the advice!! I am going to try the stick on my next time out and see what happens. Are certain colors better than others on the stick? Stick with a shad color? (black/chrome)?

Chrome and blue or black. Doesn't seem to make a difference.
