Just got back from Ouachita and the water still needs a good warm(49-55) up which looks like its coming this week but the bass were hitting good on jerk baits in water under 10 feet including some nice fish.Heard of a couple 9 pounders the past couple weeks one on a spinner bait on a windy point not sure what the other was caught on but I caught a bunch of bass on jerk baits in shad and chrome patterns.I must admit I did spend more time on stripers which were biting pretty good.
