We hit the water about 7 am and cast plastic worms into shallow water along the shore. The morning was breezy and by noon it was calm and HOT. 10 bass were landed, the biggest being 3.5 lbs. Two others were 3+ lbs and the rest were small. All were released. Two more big fish were lost, one jumping high in the air and the other diving into thick cover. I also missed at least half a dozen good bites. We left about 3 pm after a great day.
