“The hole was near a spawning area and was 25- to 30-feet-deep in the middle. The stumps were right below the surface. We used a Sexy Ghost Minnow-colored Strike King KVD Jerkbait, which is a little unconventional this early in the season. Not many teams were throwing jerkbaits because the fish aren’t active enough yet. Within minutes we had a couple of bass that weighed around 5 pounds, and then I hooked into one that was 9 pounds. By 10 a.m. we had four fish that weighed about 20 pounds and we were shaking from excitement.”
