Now is the time to start bass fishing! I catch two bass by the drain!!! Spring is here and the water is finally warming up. The water temperature is creeping up to 60 degrees. Today I am fishing with a simple float rig, and later, just a jig head. I start out fishing with a live worm, and finish with a Gulp minnow. I catch some really nice bluegill early on. One of them is nine inches! After moving down the bank a bit I end up catching two largemouth bass next to . One of them weighed about one pound. After catching these bass, its time to start fishing those larger lures for bass.
