Continuing my forcing myself to follow the advice in that BR video. Was out on Friday morning, fishing the moment. Got into a cove I have always ridden by but, my usuals were not working and figured what the hay.

Right at the start I an getting hit by large number of smaller LMB. Then I get about 1/3 into the cove, and notice severe large gray rocks in about 2 ft of water just off the shore. One of them turns to look at me and it finally dawns on me i am looking at some large bass. First time I have gotten a perfect setup like this ina LONG while.

So I cast out at then and TOTALLY choke. Cast about 3 feet to their left. As soon as my bait breaks the surface though, one of them turns and runs straight at it, take my bait and my line halfway across the cove before I blink. I hooked him, and after a couple runs, get him on deck, was a 4#. His friends did not stay around though to give me more shots at them.

I gather my composure and move further into the cove, I keep getting hits nonstop from 1#ers  all the way through it, this cove is infested with LMB. They are everywhere.

All told one of them most successful days I have had in terms of number of LMB caught I have had on Wylie.

Also nailed a 5# catfish on a spinner. He gave a surprising Basslike fight, made 4 real long runs on me.

On a side note, I held on to the 4# to for a bit to test out my livewell. Never have used it. It was a very worthwhile experience though. I found the drain plug sucks, the bass kicked it out twice. I also found out that you do NOT run the aerator on the livewell on a Tracker proTeam 175 while you are running down the lake. Once you get over idle speed it cannot pull in any water. So in effect the aerator empties the entire livewell bit by bit. 

Next tasks for me will be getting somewhat an idea what I am doing with jigs (no luck with these at all), and spoons (brand new bait for me).

Sounds like you might have found a new favorite cove!  Once you learn a little on the jig and gain some confidence, you'll have trouble putting it down!!  As far as the spoon, thats a relatively new bait to me too!

good luck and stay after em'
