<br /> I decided to hit the water around 5:45 last night and took my wife and niece with me. Started out fishing a deepwater ledge and caught 10 largemouth on a dropshot and a big worm. Of the 10, 4 would have kept, but nothing over 2 pounds. Then settled onto a flat close to deepwater and had a blast for awhile. Caught the fish on a Jerry Malone chatterbait head with a LFT Live Magic Shad as the trailer of choice. Quickly caught 7 bass, 4 of which would have easily kept in tournament play, with several long fish that looked like they were dieting. <br /> After about 30 minutes, had two guys decide to sit down on top of me and start fishing after watching me catch a few quality fish in a rude fashion similar to what Josh talked about in his post. I was a little calmer than usual, due to having my wife and 7 year old niece accompany me. At that point, muddied up the water and headed home.
