Hi folks,
Fished from my tube on a record hot day, stayed cool! It started out and continued pretty slow for some time, but I eventually found some "areas". Ended the day at 6pm after starting about 10am with 16 bass, including a 19in and a 19 1/2 in guy, and about twice that many perch and chub. I wish I could post some pictures and have some for myself but it's pretty difficult when you're alone in a tube. Used my standard small pearl curly tail on a 1/16oz jig. The bass seemed to be fairly scattered around bays with the bigger guys in deeper water, staging? Forgot to take water temp. but I'm guessing it at low 60s since it was 58 last Friday.
Have patience and stay cool. They're there! That's what I seem to notice quite a bit, big bass boats roar in, thrash the water and roar out, leaving me bouncing in the waves.
