    Bass fisherman here and going for an early top water bite but wouldn’t mind a couple of those.
    Thanks in advance.
    . It’s been said a picture is worth a thousand words, here is what I was using. Let it drop to around 10’ then slowly crank it in, it has good action with very little speed, the reason I was letting it fall to around 10’ that was where they were taking the live shad, good luck..Click image for larger version.

Hope this helps ...
    Surprisingly shallow considering the water temps.
