Yesterday Adrian Avena told me that his one-two punch involved targeting spotted bass early, waiting for the water to warm up in backs of creeks, then switching over to largemouth for the final two hours of competition.
That, of course, was on Day 1 and 2 when sunshine provided the warmth needed for moving largemouth into shallow water.
Today’s overcast conditions forced Avena to scrap the spotted bass plan much earlier. This video was shot around 11 a.m. by Garrick Dixon. It’ll be interesting to see what movements the largemouth will make, and how productive that bite will be today.
