Ridiculous numbers this year on largemouth in the lower Detroit River...  Will go through streaks where I've caught fish on 5 consecutive casts.  Kietech 4.5" Swing Impact with tail dipped in chartreuse on a 1/8oz swimjig has been killing it.  I'll be honest, about 70% of the bass I'm catching are in the 10-14" range but also catching some 18-19" bass in the 4lb range.  In five separate 2-3hr outings this past week I've netted 105 largemouth.  Never had that kind of success before.  Been having a blast,  developed a sore forearm and elbow though from fighting fish LOL!

I'm in the same boat as you. I've been crushing bass in the local lakes and ponds using a PTL 7" Tickler on a 1/4 oz shakey head as well as with stickbaits. I've had times where I was able to catch 3 fish in 5 casts just casting to the edge of the water and pumping the bait. This time of year is sure fun.

Wow, really nice haul. A great spawn for ya!

 

In years past I smoked em during the spawn, but it really

is a hit-or-miss for me. Some years not a single spawner,

other years a few, and some are awesome.
