This past Saturday I had a window to get some fishing in, so I decided to get down to Pool 4 to start practicing for my next Bassamaster Weekend Series tourney.  Overall practice was hit and miss, found some fish in area that I practiced in for previous tournament, but its a long ways from Alma where we are launching from.

Chunky bass that fell fer a Game Hawg creature bait on 3/16oz TT Weight

Most of the other areas were hit and miss, but found one nice batch of fish relating to some grass, that was the bright spot of the day other then some ealry flipping and swim jig fish.  Other then that, it was an awesome weather day on the river and Lake Pepin, made it easy to get around other then the boat traffic.

I did catch some nice fish on a new bait that i just tried.  KVD Perfect Plastics Game Hawg seems like a really nice bait, its like a Baby Brush How, but just a little bigger and some fine ribbing, very soft and scent built in.  I would reccomend in trying a bag, I think you will like them.

I will get to practice just one more time, the day before the tournament.  Hopefully my best area will hold and I can expand on it.
