Fished yesterday from 3:30 PM to 7:30PM. Water is still up, still slightly murky for lake Hall, but now up to 82 degrees. Fished a "bluebird day" and only got two - one 2lb bass on a jerkbait and one 12" on a jigworm. Lost a nice one on a jigworm - jumped and threw the hook. Things were picking up toward sunset - I think it would have been good after dark.

Jigworm

A jigworm is just a worm attached to a round-ball jighead -1/8 to 1/4 oz.
Its pretty good on Lake Hall over deep water - a 6" curl tail worm or Zoom finesse worm on a 1/4 jighead tossed deep around the milfoil/fanwort in 12' - 15' seems to get action when nothing else will. They hit on the drop mostly.
