Northern bass anglers eagerly wait for ice-out and bright sunny days to start elevating water temperatures in our favorite honey holes.
Once on the water, the best area to start searching for thawing bass can be the vegetated bays, coves and cuts on the north side of the lake. Combining the maximum sun exposure these areas receive in the spring with the darker bottoms means faster heating and the warmest water in the lake.
Warmer water draws baitfish which in turn draws bass eager to chow down after the sluggish cold water period.
What's the perfect bait for probing these weedy bass haunts?
A Texas-rigged, fluke-style soft jerkbait is often the right lure for the hunt!
Take a moment and listen to Kyle of Wired2Fish explain his reasons and approach when fishing these weedy cuts for springtime bass...
