Started myself today also. When back to the remote beach from where I got a 8 lb 10 oz bass last year only to find that the sand has been carried out to sea after the winter .... beach gone :cry: ..only boulders remaining
The search starts in earnest this year !!!!

Thanks all. RockHunter, it is Jackall Lures Bonni 128. A great lure for spring bass. I hope this year will be better than the previous one (only 298 bass ...;-)

Good early start to the season Tommy, nice one. Hope to make a trip down your way again this year. Lost the slipper lure you gave me, any idea where I can get a few more?
