Big Springtime Bed Fish Caught on Lake Travis
March and April are great months to find spawning bass. When bass are spawning, they will move up shallow and build beds where they can lay their eggs. When they do this they become very territorial and agressive. This is one of my favorite times of year to target big bass!
