From nothing to best ever in the same trip.

 Was planning on hitting the river after work yesterday with Josh but he couldn't make it so i sent out text 3 other people asking if they could join me and no one could last minute... so i went solo. Was at the launch for 5:15 and found a huge school of bass by 5:30. Problem was the water clarity had improved so much over the last few days that having blue bird sky's and bright sunshine these fish would chase like crazy but wouldn't commit. I could see 3 bass following my lures as id bring it in on some cast. Spent an hour on this school throwing everything i had and got only 3 or 4 legit blow ups all of which missed. Was frustrating to say the least. I finally gave up on these fish and proceeded to waste the next 2 hours without a hit. So 3 hours into the trip i was skunked and with the tide getting low i had a bad vibe. Who knew the next hour would be the best fishing of my life..

 I was forced to try and find some new spots last night as the tide got too low in my normal areas. I pull up on this one spot and i didn't spook any fish or see anything at all but I took a far cast and got my sad shad bit in half by a big blue fish. Next cast bite in half by another blue fish! Then the day took a turn for the better.. My next 8 cast i caught 7 keeper bass! I couldn't believe it.. these fish were destroying the sad shad worked really fast on the surface. The fights were unbelievable last night. Every fish felt stronger than the next.. probably because i was getting tired. After that crazy good run of bass i went on to catch 4 more in the next 30 minutes and every fish was between 30-39 inches and all of them on the Cobra Bait pearl sad shad. I tried throwing the popper a jerk bait a swim bait and the only thing that would hit was that sad shad. It was unreal. I made a custom iPhone holder to take pictures today and it worked out pretty dam good and im glad i did because its so hard to get photos alone. I actually left the fish biting with about a half hour of daylight left because the bugs got so bad i couldn't take it anymore. Ill remember that hour of fishing for the rest of my life.  Dont forget to add the Cobra Bait facebook page and place an order or www.cobrabait.com
