I have a spot that features heavy structure in shallow water (6' at low tide...) that ONLY works in early July- early Aug. when water temp there is at least 68- 72 degrees...

Have taken bass to 36 lbs. there in broad daylight on bunker (pogy), live & chunks... & lost much bigger ones to the structure!

Thus: I've long ago given up the notion that (big) Bass only want cool water!
