Thanks guys. TBone, my bad, I seriously don't remember the water temps.

Good tides, generally means good bass fishing and this weekend looks good! The bait barge is definitely in position now. Tons of bait around the barge for free.

All my bass were on 3" big hammers and they were far more active in the afternoon incoming tide. Colors that worked were:
