Fayett Bass Fishing April 29, 2015
Fished with Greg Marberry and Doug Mierl. Put 31 in the boat with many more strikes and tail dancers / spits. Some pics of a few of the fish. 25 years ago I fished Fayett and caught 21 on a purple lizard using a 4 piece spinning/fly rod. I have never been able to recreate that day until this trip. Using the same bait and rod, I caught them in the same spot using the same combination.
