The artificial bite has been good the past week until yesterday when we
were trying to fish in 35 MPH winds.We have been catching some bedding
fish on the large flats off the main river near the HighBanks area.
Scattered pads with floating grass mats have been the key to catching
the larger bedding fish.A lite 1/16 rattle weight along with a Bitters
7.5 Junebug Bluetail Worm seems to be working the best.
We have also been catching come very nice schooling fish on main river
points and shellbeds.Topwater prop baits have been the top lure for
these schooling fish at daybreak.The Blue Springs area has been a great area
for the schooling fish the past week.I have April 20th 21st 22nd and 29th
open and I still have a lot of days in May open.April and May are great times
to catch Trophy Bass on the St Johns River.Take a look at the 2008 Trophy
Page at www.basschallenger.com to see last years results for April and May.
