    Here is Bookers farcebook™ link:

    https://www.facebook.com/brookersbai...71576542914581

    They will be able to pinpoint action on Harris/Griffin.

    Here is a link for 44Tackle which is on 44 in Inverness (next town to Hernando)

    https://www.facebook.com/44tackle/

    They will also provide intel on Hendo-Hernando- Rousseau- Rainbow River

    They just had a Bass Tx on Henderson yesterday (Sat.) where it was a 'Hourly Weigh-In' I don't know what won or anything. The Wife and I went out and didn't sniff.

    Enjoy Your trip..

    P.S. On Your next visit the new DairyQueen™ will be open for business. It is on 41 next to the EyePopping Sandwich Shop.

    Hey Brad- Next time down that way, there are really good spots right near the launch on 27 (Sportsman's Park maybe? The launch is off of 27 off of 44. When You motor out of the launching bay, to the left, that first corner comes out to a point and they get loaded up on both sides. Just start at the shore and move out. That first cove on the left is great w/a Sammy similar and then frogs/swimbaits all the way back in there. To know You're in the correct spot there are stuffed monkeys/apes in the trees...
    Thanks for the info. I usually fish Griffin. I used to fish Harris years ago when there was no open water grass. I usually brought 2 rods back then. A flipping stick and a Spinnerbait for the Kissimmee grass edges. Boy has Lake Harris changed.

    3.76 was biggest so far. But only got to fish about 4–5 hours before rains ran us off.
    Going again tomorrow. If your out and see a dark blue and silver Stratos with Talons. Stop and say hi. Great Lake hope spraying doesn’t ruin this Gem.

    the largest (so far) is 3.76 there is/was a 1 hanging out just before the 3.76.

    Did You happen by Booker's Tackle? If You hit Lake Harris, were You able to find the canal w/the monkeys?...

    Segue:

    I hope You get to go angling with 'earthworm77' He knows quite a bit about these fish and has some good things to 'share'. Too bad time didn't allow a trip Y'all could make to the Rainbow River; it is probably nuts to butts of folks tubing for Easter.

    I'm glad You're enjoying Your holiday.

    Then You ought to come back for their Chris†mas sale. They do a real barn burner and they also do a bar-b-que.. If You make it back to Bookers look for the 5" Swimbait from BigDawgBaits™ in the Houdini. The 5" You can swim by it's lonesome but the 3" works great on a swimjig. This bait and the StrikeKing™ Swim-N-Shiner are the best at flapping at a s l o w c r a w l..

    https://baitsforsale.com/index.php/bdb-5-swim-ripper/

    A great Flipping bait if small; thin is in:

    https://baitsforsale.com/index.php/bdb-flippin-flea/

    ••• Better go by DollarTree™ or similar to get ziplock bags as these baits are STINKY and require a double bag at the very least •••

    Rainbow was slow on Tues. Not the typical day that I usually expect. Got into 15 though. Most were deeper water fish.

    You might link up w/Booker's™ so You'll know when that sale is as it is worth the time.
