Sea Smoke & Hungry Bass! | Strollin' & Flukin'!!

Описание: Hello, everyone! This was another fun trip for bass! We've got sea smoke on the water this morning and that's going to help prolong the morning bite....even better than I had hoped it would. Sea smoke is like fog, but only occurs over the water because of the temperature differential btw the water (warm) and the morning air (cool). Sea smoke also burns off much quicker than fog. Anyway, I started out with a jig + minnow which was working great. Once the fish started busting on top, I'd throw a weightless fluke at any fish that were within range and that ended up working out very well, too. So, come along with me, as I head out to catch some hungry bass in sea smoke!
