Field Notes

Cast the Big-O around cover and structure where largemouth and smallmouth repeatedly move through the strike zone. The shorter lip helps it deflect off obstacles, making it a good choice for fishing banks, laydowns, and rocky areas. Retrieve steadily and adjust speed to keep it in the productive zone.
