Bass on Rattle Baits

Type: Nontidal
Region: Central
Location: Local Pond

I caught these nice largemouths on 1/4 ounce Rat-L-Traps at a local pond on March 21. The fish were up in the warmer northwest corner of the pond enjoying a 'thermal pulse' of warmer, wind driven surface water that stacked up in the back end of the pond. Some of these fish were caught as shallow as 18 inches. Looking forward to warmer weather!
