California Delta 2/22/2014

Feb. 22, 2014
Not only was today my grandmothers 92nd birthday, on the other hand it was also a day on the water with my brother. We fished the California Delta, we launched out of B&W marina and fished all day in franks track we had no luck with rattle traps, spinnerbaits, flipping or punching. About 8:30am I switched over to a drop shot on a spinning rod. First cast resulted in a dink but first fish was a good sign. My brother quickly switch to wacky rig in the same color, and in three shacks he landed his first fish too. It was a keeper but no size. My next casts resulted in a bite, however unable to hook up, this was going to be the case for most of the day. The fish we hitting the worm hard. Yet even if we gave line and waited for the bass to swim off with the bait it did not always end up with a fish on.   We both had a two dozen of these types of bites all day long. My brother and I were able to land 6 fish a pice best fish went two pounds.  I used the same worm all day.
